Here’s what Canada did while you were sleeping on Day 11 of the 2018 Winter Olympics

It was a golden start to Day 11 of the 2018 Winter Olympics with Canada taking the top spot in two events on Tuesday.

Here’s what you missed in the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang while you were sleeping.

Women’s freestyle ski halfpipe

Cassie Sharpe took home gold in women’s ski halfpipe. The 25 year old from Comox, B.C., put up a score of 95.80 on her second of three runs. Her score was more than enough to claim the gold medal on Tuesday. Fellow Canadian freestyle skier Roz Groenewoud, who was competing with a broken arm, finished 10th with a score of 70.60.

The men were also in ski halfpipe action with Mike Riddle and Noah Bowman qualifying for the finals on Thursday.

Figure skating

Figure skating darlings Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir took home ice dancing gold, capping off their historic Olympic career. Performing to music from Moulin Rouge, the pair captured the gold medal in front of a roaring crowd at the Gangneung Ice Arena with a total score of 206.07.

“Amazing. It was a special moment to come out last,” Virtue said following their win. “It was a strong last group, there was a lot of pressure, but I’m so happy with how we performed.”

Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron of France took silver with a combined score of 205.28 while American siblings Alex and Maia Shibutani claimed bronze with a combined score of 192.59.

Curling

Kevin Koe’s rink downed Japan 8-4 in nine ends, moving into a three-way tie for second with Britain and South Korea in the round-robin portion of the tournament.On the women’s side, Rachel Homan’s rinks fell to a 3-4 record in round robin action after losing to China 7-5. Canada is sitting in 7th place in women’s curling action.

Short track speed skating

It was a disappointing day for Canada at the short track.

Canada failed to medal in the women’s 3,000-metre relay event for the first time since it was introduced. The team started well, but as happens often in this sport, a fall led to a pileup of skaters and the outcome was ultimately decided by the judges. Canada was issued a penalty and was out of medal contention. South Korea won gold.

Individually, however, the Canadian women did well. Marianne St-Gelais, Valerie Maltais and Kim Boutin all moved on to the quarter finals in the women’s 1,000-metre event.

Sam Girard advanced in the men’s 500 metre, but his teammate Charles Hamelin did not. Hamelin had a great start, but then the heat was re-started and he didn’t have the same jump the second time around. This was his last shot at an individual Olympic medal, as he plans to retire after this Olympics.
