Speed skating: Jílek takes first World Cup win

Speed skater Metoděj Jílek won the 10km race in Heerenveen in the Netherlands, claiming his first ever World Cup victory. The 19-year-old Czech clocked 12:29.63 — a personal best and the fourth-fastest time in history over the distance. Only the reigning world champion and world-record holder Davide Ghiotto of Italy (twice), and Poland’s Vladimir Semirunnij, have been quicker.
