WINTERBERG, Germany (AP) — Jacqueline Loelling of Germany won a World Cup women's skeleton race on her home track Friday, adding to her run of dominance at Winterberg.

The top American was Kendall Wesenberg, who placed 15th.
Russia's Alexander Tretiakov won the men's race easily, his time of 1:52.07 way ahead of Germany's Axel Jungk (1:52.90) and Olympic champion Yun Sungbin of Korea (1:52.91). Kyle Brown was 13th for the U.S.
