Kimberley McRae<\/a> a r\u00e9alis\u00e9 une derni\u00e8re\u00a0descente du tonnerre pour devenir la deuxi\u00e8me Canadienne de l’histoire \u00e0 r\u00e9colter une m\u00e9daille dans le cadre du Championnat du monde de luge d’Igls, en Autriche.<\/h1>\n

Dixi\u00e8me \u00e0 l’issue du\u00a0premier tour,\u00a0McRae a effectu\u00e9 un bond\u00a0de sept positions pour se hisser sur la troisi\u00e8me marche du podium privant\u00a0du m\u00eame coup une m\u00e9daille \u00e0 sa co\u00e9quipi\u00e8re\u00a0Alex Gough<\/a>,<\/p>\n

\u00abC\u2019est vraiment extraordinaire. Apr\u00e8s ma premi\u00e8re descente je croyais que j\u2019avais tr\u00e8s peu de chances pour une m\u00e9daille,\u00bb a indiqu\u00e9 McRae. \u00abJe n\u2019envisageais aucunement la possibilit\u00e9 d\u2019un podium quand je faisais ma derni\u00e8re descente. J\u2019affichais un d\u00e9ficit de deux dixi\u00e8mes de seconde, impossible \u00e0 rattraper.\u00bb<\/p>\n

McRae a\u00a0r\u00e9alis\u00e9 le d\u00e9part le plus rapide et a maintenu sa troisi\u00e8me position jusqu’au fil d’arriv\u00e9e pour signer un temps cumulatif de 1:19,952. L’Allemande Tatjana Huefner (1:19,712)\u00a0a r\u00e9colt\u00e9 l’or devant l’Am\u00e9ricaine Erin Hamlin (1:19,925). Gough a quant \u00e0 elle termin\u00e9 en cinqui\u00e8me position.<\/p>\n

\u00abLes d\u00e9parts sont le facteur qui fait la plus grande diff\u00e9rence pour moi cette ann\u00e9e\u00bb, a expliqu\u00e9 McRae. \u00abNous avons travaill\u00e9 tr\u00e8s fort sur cet aspect l\u2019\u00e9t\u00e9 dernier. Je suis rest\u00e9e en bonne forme cette saison, donc \u00e0 ce niveau-l\u00e0 j\u2019ai su me pousser aux limites, et les progr\u00e8s deviennent \u00e9vidents. \u00bb<\/p>\n

La m\u00e9daille de bronze obtenue par McRae au Championnat du monde s’ajoute donc \u00e0 celles\u00a0report\u00e9es par Gough en 2011 et 2013.<\/p>\n

Cette performance devrait donner\u00a0\u00e0 McRae une bonne dose de confiance \u00e0 un an des Jeux de PyeongChang. Elle a\u00a0impressionn\u00e9 lors de ses d\u00e9buts olympiques \u00e0 Sotchi o\u00f9 elle a termin\u00e9 au cinqui\u00e8me rang, tout juste devant Gough, pour ainsi\u00a0procurer au Canada le meilleur r\u00e9sultat de son histoire. Plus t\u00f4t cette saison, McRae a ajout\u00e9 une\u00a0m\u00e9daille d’argent \u00e0 son palmar\u00e8s lors de la Coupe du monde de Lake Placid.<\/p>\n
