Another Olympics, another meek quarterfinal exit for a decorated contender who had arrived — with realistic hopes of reaching the podium.
In scenes eerily reminiscent of the frozen mountains above Beijing four years ago, Charlotte Bankes, the former world champion and two-time over all World Cup winner, slid out fourth and last in her last-16 heat.
“I messed up,” admitted a crestfallen Bankes, who headed to Italy on the back of a World Cup win in China in January, her first since her Olympic preparations were hit when she broke her collarbone in April.
