“Daniel is doing well and has already travelled to Erfurt after we just finished our last hard training week before the games,” Hill said. “He has done well in training, is focused and doing his best.”
“I'm really enjoying working with him at the moment. We are starting to see the rewards of the hard work and his training group are all flying, so it brings confidence that we are on the good track.”
Greig was selected for PyeongChang in December and will compete in the 500 and 1000 metres.
The final World Cup before the PyeongChang Olympics will be held in Erfurt, Germany from Friday, January 19 to Sunday, January 21 and whilst all Olympic quota spots are now determined, the upcoming competition will serve as qualifying event for quota places at the ISU World Sprint Speed Skating Championships 2018 and ISU World Allround Speed Skating Championships 2018.
