Brookes will go for gold in big air final

- FROM JAMES TONEY in Milan

MIA AND HIGHER!

TOP British Olympic hope Mia Brookes went big - and very nearly went home.

Snowboarders are used to pushing it but the only thing pushed last night was the heart rate of those watching in minus-six temperatures.

Brookes, 19, has two big medal shots the Big Air and Slopestyle competitions.

The latter is considered her strongest event, but she still advanced to today's Big Air final as the third-best qualifier though she didn't do it the easy way.

Only the top 12 of 29 advance to the final, with the best two scores from three runs counting.

Brookes hit the deck with her first effort, leaving no margin for error in her final two runs.
