ZHANGJIAKOU, China — Eileen Gu earned a silver medal with her final run of the Olympic women’s ski slopestyle contest on Tuesday, keeping alive her quest to become the first action-sports athlete to capture three medals at the same Winter Games. Gu’s bid for another gold medal was thwarted by Mathilde Gremaud. The freestyle skier from Switzerland won the event on a bitterly cold and hazy day with the temperature hovering around minus-5 degrees Fahrenheit . Kelly Sildaru of Estonia took home bronze.
Sitting in eighth place after two runs, Gu used a strong final performance to work her way onto the podium. Her run included a double-cork 900 with a Buick grab at the end that impressed the judges and earned her a score of 86.23. She couldn’t catch Gremaud, though, who scored an 86.56 on her second run.
It’s an upgrade in medals for Gremaud, who won the silver at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games and captured bronze in big air last week in Beijing. She also finished second at the Winter X Games last month.Gu, the 18-year-old American-born freestyler who is competing for her mother’s home country of China, won the big air contest last week. She also is competing in the halfpipe competition.
