Summary:
British skateboarder Sky Brown won the women’s park event at the world championships in São Paulo.
The 17-year-old scored 88.16, finishing nearly four points ahead of her closest rival.
Heavy rain forced organisers to end the final early after two rounds.
Japan’s Mizuho Hasegawa took silver with 84.36.
American Minna Stess finished third with a score of 83.90.
Brown first became world champion in 2023 at age 14.
She won Olympic bronze at Tokyo 2020, becoming Britain’s youngest Olympic medallist.
Brown also secured bronze in the park discipline at the Paris 2024 Olympics.
She competed in Paris despite dislocating her shoulder a week earlier.
Brown said the victory coinciding with International Women’s Day made the moment meaningful.
What’s next: Brown continues competing on the global circuit as rankings and preparations progress toward future international events.
