Jessie Diggins makes U.S. cross-country skiing history with 10K triumph at world championships
The three-time Olympian put forth her usual gutsy effort to earn another piece of history. She went out hard from the start on a track in Planica, Slovenia, that she described as “the perfect course for me.’’
“That was so emotional,’’ Diggins said to reporters in Planica. “That was amazing. I’ve just got to say thank you to the team. Jessie Diggins, of the United States, competes in the Women's Cross Country Interval Start 10 KM Free event at the Nordic World Championships in Planica, Slovenia, Tuesday, Feb. 28, 2023.
“That was one of the best races of my whole life. I knew I felt good and was in good shape, but you also have to have great skis and good wax. I had everything I needed. I’m just so happy.’’With the victory, Diggins, 31, became the first non-European skier to win gold at the world championships since 2017. She also ended Sweden’s perfection in Planica. The country’s skiers had won all three women’s races before the 10k.
