Olympic medal hailed as example of funding success
John Steele, chief executive of UK Sport, has hailed Amy Williams' gold medal at the Vancouver 2010 Olympics as an example of how targeted investment can deliver results.
Commenting on Williams's success at the skeleton event, he said: "It takes a lot of endeavour, sacrifice and team work to win an Olympic medal and I would like to congratulate Amy, British Skeleton and all those behind the scenes who have contributed to this success.
"British Skeleton received a record £2.1m of lottery and exchequer funding for Vancouver through UK Sport and led by performance director Andi Schmid, they provide a great example of a sport working in partnership to achieve success on the world stage.
"Their success in Turin, alongside their willingness to engage with partners, gave us the confidence in their current performance and future potential. This is at the heart of our 'no compromise' approach to investing in success."
