Anthony is mogul world number one at season end

20/3/2022

Olympic champion Jakara Anthony has finished the season in the best possible way, with a double podium weekend at the final event of the season in Megève, France, securing her first overall World Cup Crystal Globe as the world number one ranked mogul skier at the end the season. Anthony also secured the dual mogul Crystal Globe as the number one dual mogul skier.
 
The double podium performance makes it a remarkable 12 medals from 13 starts for Anthony, the most ever won by an Australia in a single season, and the second Australian female to win the overall mogul skiing World Cup Crystal Globe, joining Britt Cox who led the world in 2016-2017.
 
Competing in the French Alps resort of Megève, Anthony took home a pair of silver medals in single (Olympic format)  and dual mogul events and was so close on both occasions not to take home the win, with the victory on both days narrowly awarded to local skier Perrine Laffont of France.
 
“It’s an incredible way to finish off the season” said the 23-year-old from Barwon Heads in Victoria.
 
“The crowd here were incredible, and to get to ski against Perrine one of the great female athletes in our sport was really special.”
 
“This is my first time taking the big globe and this is the first time we have had a dual mogul globe, so to be able to take that out just really shows how consistent I have been able to be this season at a really high level.”
 
“It wasn’t easy, the women’s field is so high this year and everyone is just really stepping up their game, so these feel extra special.
 
Anthony finished the season in first place on the overall mogul standings with 925 points, 19 points clear of Laffont, with Japanese skier Anri Kawamura in third with 704 points. Anthony also secured the first ever Dual Mogul Crystal Globe as the number one ranked dual mogul skier at season end. 

Anthony wins dual moguls gold in Italy

Olympic champion Jakara Anthony has continued her great form at the first competition since the Beijing Olympic Games, recording victory in the dual mogul World Cup event overnight in Valmalenco, Italy.
 
Anthony has now won an incredible ten medals, equalling Alisa Camplin and Britt Cox as the most successful Australian wintersport athletes in a single season, with two events remaining.  
 
Competing at the Italian resort, Anthony advanced through the dual mogul rounds comfortably, to reach the gold medal dual against 2018 Olympic Champion Perrine Laffont of France.
 
With her trademark corked 720 mute grab on the top air and high level turns, Anthony forced Laffont to ski to her limit in the final, with the French skier making a number of mistakes to give Anthony the fourth World Cup gold medal of her career, with the judges giving Anthony the win with a score of 20 points to 15.
 
Rounding out the podium in third place was Olympic silver medallist Jaelin Kauf of the USA.
 
“I am so proud of how I skied” said the 23-year-old from Barwon Heads in Victoria.
 
“It’s really tough in there, so to be able to put down consistent runs at the level I know I was capable of was my goal for this weekend and I achieved that, so I couldn’t be happier.
 
Anthony will be aiming to win the first Crystal Globe World Cup title of her career at the World Cup final next weekend in Megeve, France, with a mogul event on March 18 and dual moguls on March 19.
 
Anthony could possibly win all three mogul skiing Chrystal Globes. Anthony  is ranked first in the overall mogul and dual mogul World Cup standings , and is in third place in the single mogul  discipline.
 
“I am so excited to go to Megeve, we have just skied in the Alps in Italy, and now we are heading back to the French Alps, it’s a really spectacular part of the world that I haven’t seen much before, so I am just so excited to go experience the mountains and ski some moguls.”
