Winter Olympics 2026: Canada’s Oldham beats Gu to freeski big air gold with Muir fourth for GB – live
The last four warming up in the skating: Hungary, Canada, Georgia, Germany.
In the ice hockey semis, Canada’s women are leading Switzerland 2-0 in the second period.
Stunning skate from Japan! Miura Riku and Kihara Riyuichi are perfection. They had a stutter in the first round that saw them finish fifth coming into this round, where normally they would be expecting to be in the top couple, so they have a lot of ground to make up. Miura is tiny, so Kihara is able to throw her around with ease. He’s spinning her on top of his upstretched arm like she’s a pizza base. Their solo jump sequence is in sync, then she lands his throws with such assurance. They pull out all the stops going into the closing sequence, a dizzying (literally) display of spins and lifts.

LIVIGNO, Italy — Eileen Gu’s defence of her freeski big air title ended with silver as Canada’s Megan Oldham produced a sensational performance to win gold in a final that was delayed by over an hour after a snowstorm.
Oldham’s combined score of 180.75 was 1.75 points better than Gu, who followed her slopestyle second-place finish with a second silver of the Games. The Canadian led the standings after landing a left sided double cork 1260 on her second run for a score of 89.00. With none of her competitors bettering her in their final runs, her gold was already secured before she concluded the evening with her third run.
