Torah Bright believes that she can win medals in the half-pipe, slopestyle and snowboardcross categories in women's snowboarding in Sochi.

Australia's Torah Bright has insisted that she can win medals in three different snowboarding events at the 2014 Winter Olympics.

The 27-year-old will compete in the half-pipe, slopestyle and snowboardcross in Sochi this month.

"It's an Olympic journey done my way," the Star Tribune quotes her as saying. "It's been a year of self-exploration.

"I had to challenge myself more than I ever have on my snowboard, mentally and physically switching between three disciplines. I was having people tell me, 'Why bother? Just go back and defend your gold medal.'

"Snowboarding to me isn't about the accolades. It isn't about competing. I do it because I love to snowboard, not because I love to compete."

Bright, who is the defending Olympic half-pipe champion, qualified for Sunday's women's slopestyle final on Thursday.
