South Korea’s Lee breaks her own speedskating world record in 500 metres
CALGARY – Sang-Hwa Lee of South Korea broke her own record in the 500 metres in long-track speedskating Saturday.

The 24-year-old from Seoul won her second 500 metres in as many days at the season-opening World Cup.
Lee’s winning time on Friday was 36.91 seconds.
