Great Britain short track speed skater Elise Christie has revealed that her relaxed nature before she competes can unnerve her fellow competitors.
The 23-year-old will compete in three distance events 500m, 1,000m, 1,500m, and is backed to finish in a medal position for Team GB in Sochi.
"A lot of people just sit there in the zone, and I generally will go up and talk to them," Christie told BBC Sport.
"I think that makes them think I'm not very nervous. 'Oh God, she's fine.' And it's because I am fine. I mean, what's going to happen on the ice is going to happen. I can't do much about it. So I just chat to them about other stuff."
Christie will compete in the quarter-finals of the 500m later today.
