22 November 2014 – Seoul, KOREA
Racing in the second ISU World Cup event, Shani Davis moved into second place in career World Cup points.
Picking up 95 total points for fifth and sixth place finishes at 1000m and 1500m, Shani’s 11,860 career points take him past Erben Wennemars (11,785) and leave him behind only Jeremy Wotherspoon, the great Canadian sprinter who amassed 13,009 points over 15 seasons from 1996-2010.
In just 10 seasons on the World Cup circuit – five fewer than both Wotherspoon and Wennemars – Shani has collected 58 individual victories at 1000m (40) and 1500m (18), second only to Wotherspoon’s 67.
Davis looks to build on his total – and ascend the podium for the first time this season – when the World Cup season resumes in December in Europe.
