Team GB's Jenna McCorkell confident ahead of second event

Great Britain figure skater Jenna McCorkell believes that she is a lot more confident in Sochi than her first experience of the Winter Olympics four years ago.

Great Britain figure skater Jenna McCorkell has admitted that she is a lot more confident in her abilities in her second experience of the Winter Olympics.

The 27-year-old endured a miserable time in Vancouver four years ago when she fell during her routine and crashed out of the Games.

However, she has already shown promise this time around finishing 10th in the team event in Sochi.

"I wasn't really ready four years ago but I've came in here knowing my practices have been going very well and I feel more confident," McCorkell told Team GB's official website.

"I knew I could do it in the team event and I'm over the moon to have skated like that. I got a little buzz after landing two early triples. I knew I could land them, I do them day in, day out in practice but you've got to do it at right moment too."

McCorkell will resume her Olympic campaign later today in the ladies short programme.
