Olympiad overall standings

About the medals in brief

Kamila Valieva, Anna Shcherbakova and Alexandra Trusova claim the entire podium in singles figure skating.

Hockey

Women. Canada - USA. Final (7:10, Moscow time)

The traditional final for the largest women's hockey competitions. Canada and the United States have not met in the decisive match in the history of the world championships only once. In 2019, the Finns defeated the Canadians in the semi-finals. The same thing at the Olympics - only in 2006, the Swedes were able to defeat the Americans.

This time, Canada has more chances to win. The Canadians won all six matches in Beijing, including four by double figures. The results of American women are more modest. And, most importantly, they lost to the representatives of the maple leaf country in the group tournament meeting - 2:4.

Alpine skiing

Curling

Women. Russia - Great Britain (9:05 Moscow time)

Russia has seven defeats in eight matches. Great Britain is fighting for the playoffs and shares the last passing fourth place with Canada and Korea. The favorite of the game is obvious.

Figure Skating

Women. Single skating. Free program (13:00 Moscow time)

After the short program, the leaders are:

Kamila Valieva (82.16 points);

Anna Shcherbakova (80.20);

Kaori Sakamoto (79.84);

Alexandra Trusova (74.60).

Despite the intermediate third place of the Japanese, the Russians have a chance to take the entire podium. The bronze medalist of the last World and European Championships Alexandra Trusova, who fell during the performance of the triple axel during the short program, is listed as the third.

Trusova, who has many quadruple jumps in her arsenal, only her own mistakes can prevent her from getting on the podium. If she successfully makes at least two or three quads in a free program, then she will bypass the Japanese without any problems.

The first place of the current European champion and the winner of the Olympics in team competitions Valieva is not in doubt. A scandal over doping and a suspended situation with admission to a personal tournament, which was resolved by the decision of the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), if they affected her at the box office, it was not as strong as they could - the Russian woman made a mistake when landing after a triple axel, but the complexity of her program was high, so the oversight did not affect the first place.

The current world champion Anna Shcherbakova should easily keep the second position.

Also on Thursday in Beijing, medals will be played among men in team competitions in Nordic combined (normal springboard + 4x5 km relay), but the Russians will not take part in these competitions, since there are only three of them at the Olympics, and four are needed for this discipline.
