Russian teenager Evgenia Medvedeva underscored her status as the new star of womens skating on Saturday with a record-breaking victory at the World Figure Skating Championships. The 16-year-old broke the record for the highest free skate score ever, amassing 150.10 points to surpass by .04 the mark set by Kim Yuna at the 2010 Olympic Games.The teenager also scored a notable first by becoming the first world junior champion to win the senior title the following year. Medvedevas spectacular performance set to the soundtrack of Madonnas film W.E. launched her from third after the short programme to the top of the podium with 223.86 points in front of a capacity crowd at TD Garden in Boston, Massachusetts.Medvedeva - heavily tipped to win gold heading into the competition - lived up to expectations, nailing every one of her seven triple jumps and two double Axels.I dont have any emotions right now. I left it all on the ice with my performance today. I think I wont realise soon that I won. One year ago I was still skating in juniors, Medvedeva said through an interpreter. Medvedeva broke the record for the highest free skate score ever I was actually less nervous than usual and I felt very comfortable out there. I was focused and I took one element at a time.This is really an incredible moment for me and its going to be a remarkable moment in my life, added Medvedeva who also won the Grand Prix and European titles this season.When advised that her score was record-setting, the teen could say only Wow.Veteran Ashley Wagner of the United States skated last and into the silver medal position with an emotionally-charged performance to the Moulin Rouge soundtrack.This was absolutely incredible. I dont think anyone can prepare you for skating last at the world championships after your rivals have skated a great performance, Wagner said.The bronze medal went to unheralded Russian Anna Pogorilaya who also skated her Sheherazade programme without any significant faults. Her finale earned 139.71, giving her a total of 213.69.

RIO DE JANEIRO -- Elia Viviani slammed hard into the wooden surface of the Olympic velodrome and thought, just for a fleeting moment, that perhaps his chances of winning a track cycling gold medal were over.Then he stood up. He realized he wasnt hurt. And he saw that he was still leading the omnium.So, Viviani hauled himself back onto his bike and proceeded to hold off stiff challenges from British cycling star Mark Cavendish and reigning gold medalist Lasse Norman Hansen of Denmark to win the multi-discipline event at the Rio de Janeiro Games on Monday.Its a bike race, Viviani said of the crash, caused when Cavendish collided with Korean rider Park Sang-hoon in the fourth corner. Were on a track, no brakes. When one guy changes directions in front of you and someone else is not ready to change directions, you crash.Talk about a pragmatic approach to a near-catastrophe.The omnium is contested over six events, but it came down to the points race, the final event where riders sprint for points every 10 laps and can earn bonus points for lapping the entire field.The tension was building when Cavendish, unaware of Park beside him, slashed down toward the bottom of the track. The Korean fell hard and lay motionless for several minutes while medical staff tended to him. He was eventually fitted with a neck brace and strapped to a backboard.Race officials said later Park did not sustain any serious injuries.It was my fault. I should have been looking where I was going a bit more, Cavendish said. I hope hes all right. And I apologized to Elia, he went down too.Meanwhile, Cavendish finally claimed the Olympic medal that has long eluded him.The winner of 30 stages of the Tour de France, Cavendish was the only British rider to miss out on a track cycling medal at the 2008 Beijing Games. He was also favored in the road race at the 2012 London Games but missed the podium.I did everything I could to prepare for this race. I did everything I could in the race, Cavendish said. Ultimately, I couldnt do anything more. So I have to be happy.Viviani was simply more consistent, wiinning the elimination race and finishing third in the individual pursuit and time trial Sunday.dddddddddddd He then took second in the flying lap to start the final day of competition, building a 16-point lead over second-place Cavendish entering the points race.At that point, all Viviani had to do was mark his rivals moves.Hansen will certainly rue his last-place finish in the elimination race. The Danish rider won the scratch race and individual pursuit to take a huge early lead, but the bronze medalists stunning misstep in the third event of the program proved too costly to overcome.I think I just went too deep in the (individual pursuit), he said. All cross-eyed before the start and I knew I wouldnt have a lot in the tank. But I didnt expect to get last.Britain can conclude another monster performance in the velodrome on Tuesday night, when Becky James and Katy Marchant try for individual sprint medals, Laura Trott aims to defend her omnium title and Jason Kenny tries to win his third gold medal of the Rio Games in the keirin.Their team is trying to match its feat of the past two Olympics, seven gold medals in each.Britain has already won mens and womens team pursuit, along with mens team sprint and Kennys individual sprint title. Three more golds would match Britains effort from Beijing and London.The potential for seven gold medals in 10 events is even more astounding when you consider the British squad didnt even qualify a team for the womens team sprint.Oh, and James and Callum Skinner each have won silver medals, too.The path to gold in the individual sprint became easier for James and Marchant when Olympic champion Anna Meares of Australia lost in her repechage Monday.There is no one who will criticize me more than me, said Meares, who wound up finishing 10th in the individual sprint. The perfectionist within me makes it hard to comprehend this result.For the first time in 22 years, I just couldnt get anything more out.
