- description: Day 9 of the 2018 Olympic Winter Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea saw Canadian freestyle skier Alex Beaulieu-Marchand land on the podium with a score of 92.40 and a bronze in the men's ski slopestyle final. Norway's Braaten Oystein took gold with the top score of 95.00, followed by American Nick Goepper who earned silver with a score of 93.60. Canada secured a spot in the quarter-finals after a 4-0 win over South Korea in men's hockey but in curling Sweden stole a win over Canada 5-2. Women's curling team turned things around with a 10-18 victory over Switzerland. Europeans stole the show on the mountain and plains as Austrian skier Marcel Hirscher became the second athlete to earn two individual golds in Pyeongchang after winning the men's giant slalom. Hirscher who also won the men's alpine combined and German biathlete Laura Dahlmeier are the only Olympians so far to have done so. Hirscher has a shot at more. Oleksandr Abramenko won gold in freestyle skiing aerials while Olivier Rochon, the only Canadian to reach the men's aerials finals, finished fifth and did not make it to the podium. The men’s team pursuit speed skaters failed to advance to the semis. On the women's side, Marsha Hudey was 10th and Heather McLean finished 14th in the women's 500-metre finals while Nao Kodaira of Japan took the top spot followed by Lee Sang-Hwa (KOR) in second and Karolina Erbanova (CZE) in third. Norway won their 11th cross-country medal and 5th gold in the men's 4x10-kilometre relay while Canada, competing without Alex Harvey after he dropped out of the event, finished ninth.
