Josie Baff has refused to blame her Australian teammate Adam Lambert after his crash cost her the chance to win a landmark second medal in the snowboard cross at the Milan-Cortina Olympics.
Only a few hours after Matt Graham clinched bronze in the dual moguls event, Baff and Lambert - who grew up as neighbours in Jindabyne - were in the hunt to add to the five medal tally, looking strong as they powered into Sunday's mixed team final.
But Lambert got tangled up with Italian racer Lorenzo Sommariva on a corner and crashed heavily before scooting to the bottom of the course 4.16 seconds behind the French race leader Loan Bozzolo.
