Czech figure skater Tomas Verner takes silver at European Championships

The Czech figure skater Tomas Verner has won a silver medal at the European Championships in Poland. Verner, who is 20, had his hopes of gold dashed when he fell coming out of a quadruple toe loop. It was the Czech Republic's first medal in the competition in 12 years. Verner's trainer Vlasta Koprivova said his success could help bring back the good times for Czech figure skating.
