![]() Their free dance is set to music from the Lion King. Ice dancers Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson charmed with their Kiss-themed rhythm dance, placed tenth at the halfway stage with the free dance to come on Monday. Team GB’s curlers are back on the ice on Monday (Photo: Getty) Heavy snow, falling for the first time during the Games, and high winds delayed the two-run qualification stage where Muir will aim for the final alongside Katie Summerhayes. Meanwhile, weather permitting, Kirsty Muir will have a second chance to impress in Beijing in the delayed qualification for freeski slopestyle. Her last top-level outing in big air was a fifth-placed finish in Steamboat, USA in December and she has won six World Cup medals in the discipline.Īmong the front-runners for gold will be Japan’s Kokomo Murase and reigning Olympic champion Anna Gasser from Austria. Now Ormerod has a second chance to rewrite her Olympic story at Big Air Shougang. The 24-year-old finally got the Games monkey off her back in finishing 18th in slopestyle, nearly 20 points off a place in the medal run-off. Katie Ormerod continues her belated Olympic debut with a shot at making the final in snowboard big air. 11am: Ski jumping, men’s team (final round: 12.06pm).11am: Freestyle skiing, women’s aerials (final run: 12pm).1.15am: Figure skating, ice dance – free dance.1.30am: Bobsleigh, women’s monobob (final run: 3am).As such, Xu Mengtao will have extra motivation, if any were needed, to deliver gold she also finished second in the individual event eight years ago. The Chinese team were gutted to miss out on gold to the Americans, celebrating after their final jump only to be left speechless by the judges’ scores that only earned them silver. There will probably be less controversy but no fewer spectacular performances at the women’s aerials, which will take place all in one day after heavy snow and low visibility forced a delay to qualification. Fellow Russians Victoria Sinitsina and Nikita Katsalapov are in second and could find themselves in a similar situation. She is the daughter of Eteri Tutberidze, Valieva’s coach and self-styled “Cruella De Vil” of speed skating.ĭavis and partner Gleb Smolkin are unlikely to win a medal, placed 14th after the rhythm dance, but will probably find themselves dodging questions about Tutberidze and Valieva afterwards. The ones awarded in the ice dance are somewhat Valieva-adjacent, given they will be won on the same rink where she may or may not skate on Tuesday, and also because Diana Davis is competing for the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC). ![]() 8pm-8.55pm – Aimee Fuller presents another extended highlights package, BBC Threeīy coincidence, it is a relatively quiet day of competition, with only four medals up for grabs.7pm-8pm – Today at the Games with Clare Balding, BBC Two.3pm-6pm – JJ Chalmers presents extended replays, BBC Two.9.15am-1pm – Hazel Irvine presents the main morning show, with live events and highlights, BBC One on weekdays, BBC Two on weekends.6am-9am – Jeanette Kwakye hosts live action, BBC Two.Midnight-6am – overnight action presented by Ayo Akinwolere, BBC One.The BBC will screen more than 300 hours of live coverage across BBC One and BBC Two, with additional coverage available on a second live digital stream on BBC iPlayer, the red button and the BBC Sport website.īeijing is eight hours ahead of the UK, meaning many of the events will take place late at night in UK time.
