Gilmartin ends short track World Cup with career best finish

Last weekend, the 26-year old won World Cup bronze in her signature distance in Dresden and she reached another final in the last event of the season in Minsk.

But Korea's Ah Rum Noh won an action-packed race which saw both Gilmartin and Holland's Suzanne Schulting penalised and China's Han Yutong fail to finish.

However, Gilmartin's consistency is rewarded with a best-ever finish in the overall season rankings, a major confidence boost ahead of next month's World Championships in Rotterdam.

Elsewhere, China's Liu Yang won the women's 1000m while Korea's Dae Heon Hwang claimed the men's 1000m.

And Korea's Hyo Been Lee led a clean sweep of the podium as he stormed to gold in 1500m, ahead of team-mates Kyung-Hwan Hong and Yong Jun Lim.
