If you’ve been to the University of Bath’s Sports Training Village recently, you might have spotted a blur racing down the UK’s only outdoor push-start track. That blur is Matt Weston, currently the most dominant athlete in world skeleton racing.
At just 28 years old, Weston has just clinched his third consecutive IBSF Overall World Cup title in Altenberg, cementing his status not merely as a promising talent, but as the man everyone is aiming to beat.
