Megan Oldham delivered Canada’s second gold medal of the Milan Cortina Olympics on Day 10 of the Games, winning the women’s freestyle skiing big air competition.
Earlier, Courtney Sarault earned her third medal of the Olympics with silver in the women’s 1,000 metres in short-track speedskating.
Sarault, a 25-year old from Moncton, N.B., added to a medal haul that already included mixed team relay silver and individual bronze in the 500 from earlier in the Games.
Women’s hockey captain Marie-Philip Poulin scored twice in a tight 2-1 semifinal win over Switzerland, becoming the first player to reach 20 career Olympic goals and breaking Hayley Wickenheiser’s record of 18.
The defending champions will face the United States in Thursday’s final, marking Canada’s eighth straight appearance in the Olympic gold medal game.
Canada’s bid for another figure skating medal came up short in pairs as Lia Pereira of Milton, Ont., and Trennt Michaud of Trenton, Ont., slipped from third after the short program to finish eighth following a mistake-filled free skate.
In women’s curling, Rachel Homan earned a pair of wins at Cortina Curling Olympic Stadium, defeating China’s Rui Wang 10-5 before edging Japan’s Sayaka Yoshimura 9-6.
The wins came a day after World Curling walked back expanded hog-line monitoring that drew complaints following a controversial call against Homan.
On the men’s side, Brad Jacobs guided Canada to an 8-2 victory over Czechia’s Lukas Klima to improve to 5-1 in round-robin play. Jacobs’ rink will face top-ranked Bruce Mouat of Great Britain on Tuesday night.
