Kearney wins U.S. gold in World Cup dual moguls |
PARK CITY, Utah (AP) -- Hannah Kearney won her 14th consecutive World Cup gold, claiming the dual moguls title Saturday night at the freestyle event at Deer Valley Resort.
Kearney edged Canada's Justine Dufour-Lapointe for her first dual moguls win on the Champion run. Fellow American Heather McPhie grabbed bronze.
Canada's Mikael Kingsbury was going for a record-setting seventh straight World Cup gold, but couldn't beat Russian Sergey Volkov in the final run.
It was Volkov's first career gold in a season where he also had his first career World Cup podium.
Older brother Andrey Volkov edged American Jeremy Cota for bronze Saturday.
The 25-year-old Kearney has been unbeatable since last season. She has won 13 straight individual World Cup mogul titles, including one Thursday, and is 3 for 3 in dual moguls this season.
