Two-time Olympic gold medalist Callie Humphries of Curlsbad won her second Monobob World Championship race in eight days at Königssee on Saturday.

Humphries had the fastest time in each run – 53.36 seconds in the first and 53.39 seconds in the second – a combined time of one minute, 46.75 seconds.

Elana Meyers Taylor of the US team from Douglasville, Georgia finished second with a combined time of 1: 47.37. Germany’s Stephanie Schneider was third with a time of 1: 47.50.

“I don’t focus on time, I can do what I do better,” Humphries said. “If I make a mistake, the door opens to other contestants. I work on what I can control and make sure my start and run are as good. Although I know that I am in charge, I want to focus on what I can do better. “

Humphries won Olympic gold medals for his native Canada in 2010 and 2014, two bobsleighs and bronze in 2018.
