Oldham wins bronze in Olympic women’s slopestyle
Canada added to its medal total Monday with a bronze medal in women’s slopestyle skiing.
Megan Oldham of Parry Sound, Ontario finished third in the event, which challenges athletes to navigate a course of jumps, rails and aerial tricks judged on difficulty, execution and style.
Switzerland’s Mathilde Gremaud captured gold, while China’s Eileen Gu secured silver.
It’s Canada’s second bronze at the Winter Games.
The country’s first medal came earlier in the competition when speed skater Valérie Maltais of La Baie, Quebec earned bronze in the women’s 3,000-metre long track event — her first individual Olympic medal and Canada’s opening medal of Milano-Cortina.
