ZHANGJIAKOU, China (AP) Austria won Olympic gold in the ski jumping team event on Monday, four years after failing to even earn a medal in the event at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games.
The ski jumping competition at the 2022 Winter Olympics caught fans with some shocking final results. Ski jumping favorites have not been able to find their spot on the podium, giving way to the success of up-and-coming jumpers from Slovenia and Canada.
ZHANGJIAKOU, China (AP) Ursa Bogataj went from last to first. The Slovenian ski jumper won Olympic gold in women's ski jumping on Saturday night, four years after after having the fewest points in the same event at the Pyeongchang Games.
"The sport of ski jumping has experienced one of its darker days," a Norwegian official said, after athletes from some of the top medal-contending teams were disqualified from competing.
