Ben Sim
Ben Sim (born 30 July 1985 in Cooma, New South Wales) is an Australian cross-country skier who has competed since 2002. At the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, he finished 20th in the team sprint, 45th in the 15 km, and 47th in the 15 km + 15 km double pursuit event.
Sim's best finish at the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships was 14th twice (Team sprint: 2007, 4 x 10 km: 2009).
His best World Cup finish was 16th in the team sprint event at Whistler Olympic Park in January 2009.
Sim is taking up Nordic combined. His build has been described as more suited to Nordic combined than cross-country skiing, and he's able to obtain funding for competing in that sport he wouldn't get in cross-country skiing.[1]
