Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I’ve known Jasmin Taylor for a good few years, today she won the FIS World Cup race for the Telemark Parallel Sprint, in doing so she won the overall 2024 title for all disciplines and a further crystal globe! So Jaz now has two Crystal Globes! What an achievement, and a thoroughly deserved reward for the years of hard work and dedication she has put into her sport.

it has to be said ..
a British Female skier is crowned World Champion ....
and the reporting of such an amazing achievement is reduced to a few lines tucked away in a BBC sports article .
Britains most successful ski and snowsports athlete, and possibly Britains most successful sports person on a world stage ever ...
Lets hope the press and sports industry do this monumental success justice .....

Just saying that some media (i.e. The Ski Podcast) has long been a fan of Jasmin and covered her successes

I've met her a few times now - lovely person to chat to and a great competitor!

@Alastair Pink, we have some female world champions who are poorly promoted in the general media.
In DH mountains biking, the name Rachel Atherton was almost unknown outside the mountain biking community - yet she dominated the sport for years. DH is an incredibly demanding sport and the women are now monster athletes.
