Canterbury's skiing sensation Millie Knight won a second silver medal at the Winter Paralympics in Pyeongchang on Sunday.

The visually impaired skier, with her guide Bret Wild, came second in the women's super G on the second day of competition in South Korea.

On Saturday, the pair also took home silver in the downhill event.

It was a double success for Paralympics GB in the women's super G as Menna Fitzpatrick and Jen Kehoe finished third.

Knight and Wild were the first to tackle the course on and they set the standard at one minute, 33.76 seconds.

However, they were pipped to the gold medal again by the Slovakian pair of Henrieta Farkasova and her guide Natalia Subrtova.

“I can’t believe that this has happened again,” she said. “It’s amazing, I was actually more nervous in the start gate today than I was yesterday, to get that result is absolutely fantastic.

“In the night and the morning I was relaxed, the downhill took a lot of pressure off so I slept really well and was in a great position to race, but for some reason my head always gets a bit carried away.

“This run was never going to feel clean, our coaches told us that based on the inspection so it wasn’t a surprise to be like that.

“We’ve still got three more events so we’re looking forward to that, we’ve got a rest and then we go again in the super-combined so I’ll have an early night and wake up early for that!”

Three medals have now come the way of the British team – nearly halfway to the UK Sport target of seven – with the visually impaired team still preparing more more events across the week to add to their ever-growing collection.

But for Knight the rewards she’ll take away from PyeongChang are already far beyond what she ever dreamed.

Four years ago the teenager made history as the team’s youngest athlete – also carrying the flag at the opening ceremony – but it’s in South Korea where she has come of age.

For her mum, Suzanne – Millie’s first guide when the Paralympics were a distant dream – the perfect gift for a special day was well and truly delivered.

“Hopefully it will be a good Mother’s Day present for her,” added Knight.

“If you had said this would have happened to me, stood here with two silver medals, I’d have told you how crazy it was to be sat in this situation.

“This time four years ago I was watching Kelly Gallagher win her gold and I was just over the moon – I knew it would be amazing to try and be that good one day but to get two silvers on days one and two is so good.”

The teenager has three more chances of winning gold in Pyeongchang starting on Tuesday.
