Elise Christie wins 1500m gold in short-track World Cup

Elise Christie has been on the podium eight times in World Cup events this season

Great Britain's Elise Christie's historic World Cup season continued with victory in the 1500m in the short-track speed skating meeting in Dresden.

The 22-year-old took gold ahead of South Korean Kim Min-Jung and Canada's Marie-Eve Drolet.

The skater became the first Briton to win an overall World Cup title last week as she was crowned the 1000m short-track champion.

Christie has also collected European gold medals over both 1000m and 1500m.

The Scot is in action in the 500m, along with GB team-mate Charlotte Gilmartin, on Sunday.

Dresden is the final World Cup but the season culminates with the World Championships in Debrecen, Hungary, between 8-10 March.
