Skiing: Uemura wins dual moguls at national championships
Aiko Uemura successfully defended her title in the women’s dual moguls at the freestyle skiing national championships on Saturday.
Uemura, who won bronze in the same discipline at the world championships last weekend to secure her place in the Winter Olympics in Turin, was flawless in all three races she competed at Hakuba Sanosaka ski course, except for a deduction in landing a second air maneuver in the semifinals.
She outperformed Miyuki Hatanaka in the final.
