Canadian short-track star William Dandjinou is through to the quarterfinal in men’s 500-metre speedskating at the Milan Cortina Games, along with fellow Canadians Steven Dubois and Maxime Laoun.
Dandjinou pulled ahead for an easy win after the three competitors in his heat went down in a crash.
The 24-year-old Montreal native arrived at the Games as the world’s top-ranked skater and a favourite for multiple gold medals.
Two events into his individual program, he is still searching for a podium finish. Dandjinou finished fifth Saturday in a chaotic men’s 1,500-metre final marked by heavy contact and constant position changes.
