Team officials have left reigning world champion Jarryd Hughes out of Australia's Olympic mixed snowboard cross team after below par form in the men's event in Beijing, opting instead for Cameron Bolton to partner Belle Brockhoff.
In a further blow to 2018 Olympic silver medallist Hughes, who was shattered after his performance in the individual race on Thursday, he has been told that if Australia is able to enter a second team Adam Lambert will be preferred to partner Josie Baff.
