KONIGSSEE, Germany (AP) — Canada’s Kaillie Humphries edged Elana Meyers of the United States by the slimmest of margins Sunday for the overall women’s World Cup bobsled title, while Fabienne Meyer of Switzerland won the tour’s season finale.
Humphries finished with 1,629 points, one more than Meyers. If Humphries — the Olympic champion and now a two-time overall World Cup winner — was 0.03 seconds slower Sunday, Meyers would have the title.
Meyer and Tanja Mayer had a two-run time of 1 minute, 44.01 seconds. Meyers and Aja Evans had a stellar second run to climb six spots and finish second, just ahead of Humphries and Heather Moyse.
Jazmine Fenlator and Lolo Jones of the U.S. were eighth, two spots ahead of Jamie Greubel and Lauryn Williams. Greubel finished third in the season standings.
