Canada wins bronze medal in women’s freeski slopestyle

Megan Oldham secured bronze with a top score of 76.46 on her final run, earning Canada's second medal of the 2026 Winter Olympics after overcoming a crash.

  • On February 9, 2026, Canada's women's hockey team plays Czechia after a 4-0 win over Switzerland on Saturday; Oldham and Urness compete at Livigno Snow Park today.
  • After dominating the opener, Canada's women's hockey team outshot Switzerland 55-6 and scored on three of five power-play opportunities in Saturday's game.
  • Oldham responded resiliently, recovering from a fall to win bronze with 76.46 points, while Naomi Urness finished seventh in her Olympic debut with 64.73 in the 12-woman final.
  • As a result, Canada now has two medals after Megan Oldham's bronze and Valerie Maltais's 3,000 metres bronze, while figure skating features three Canadian ice-dance tandems in the rhythm event today.
  • Coaches warn Canada must raise production against tougher opposition, as Czechia's physicality and eight players on PWHL rosters pose a stiffer test before their midweek showdown with the United States women's hockey team.
