According to a BBC report, British skater Sarah Lindsay was fuming after being disqualified from the 500m short track speed skating race. She was disqualified due to making contact with the same skater twice. Both of which were at the beginning of the race.
I enjoyed this lead because it left a little to question. It caused me to delve deeper into the article and actually peaked my interest. It could be noted that this is a poor lead, however, for the exact same reason I enjoyed it.
The lead is short and highglights emotion of the person involved in the incident. The lead does give the information needed so I can't fault it on that, but I don't think it is very drawing. I would like to get a little more information on the "why" she was disqualified in the lead.
