Josie Baff has refused to blame her Australian teammate Adam Lambert after his crash cost her the chance to win a landmark second medal in the snowboard cross at the Milan-Cortina Olympics. The women follow the men's leg and start through the gate based on the margin their partner finished behind the winner. The gold was won by Great Britain's Huw Nightingale and Charlotte Bankes with Italy second and France third. She dragged the duo into the Big Final after starting fourth through the gates to finish second. He didn't know whether the missed opportunity to win an Olympic medal would stay with him.
