Gu pipped to Olympic gold again as Meillard extends Swiss ski dominance
Eileen Gu earned silver in women's big air after Megan Oldham's higher score; Loic Meillard claimed men's slalom gold, extending Switzerland's alpine skiing success with four golds.
- At Livigno Snow Park on February 16, a skier won the big air competition, with the result occurring during the Olympics held last week.
- Gu had been aiming to retain her big air title, and Mathilde Gremaud's withdrawal through injury altered the field, boosting her chances.
- After a shaky second attempt, Gu recovered with an 89.00 final run, and she said she felt no disappointment after her fifth Olympic medal.
- In the story, Loic Meillard seized control in the second leg to win men's alpine skiing with a time of 1min 53.61, extending Switzerland's dominance in the event.
- Looking to the remainder of the schedule, Gu still has a halfpipe chance later this week after winning two silver medals, and China remains without a gold medal with six days to go.
