ANDREW MUSGRAVE secured the best Winter Olympics result by a British cross-country skier with seventh as Norway claimed a clean sweep of the 30km skiathlon podium in Pyeongchang yesterday.

Simen Hegstad Kruger led the Norwegian 1-2-3 ahead of Martin Johnsrud (silver) and Hans Christer Holund (bronze).

The 27-year-old Scot, at his third Olympics, was behind only Kruger, who had a clear lead, as the skiers entered the stadium for the final time, with 3.75km remaining.
