Key events
Gosh, Noel’s making hard work of this, the snow huffing down and he manages to ski his way out of trouble and stay on his feet, just, but finishes 1.96s off the lead. I think we can say he won’t be retaining his title. Next out, Kristoffersen, Norway’s best-ever slalomer … and he finishes a huge 1.59 off the lead.
Let’s get straight into the men’s slalom; there’s a field of … er …. 90?! McGrath of Norway leads with 56.14 but here comes Rassat of France, one of the favourites … and he misses a gate. Next up is Noel, also of France and the defending champion.
Preamble
Buongiorno a tutti e benvenuti alle Olimpiadi invernali 2026 – decima giorno!
It’s another ludicrously rammed day in Milan-Cortina, featuring six medal events and plenty else to keep us entertained from morning and into the night.
We begin with some light curling, GB women – more or less out of contention to move into the knockouts – encounter Denmark, while pool leaders Sweden meet third-placed Switzerland.
Then it’s into skiing, with run one of the men’s slalom– the second follows at lunchtime, Clement Noel, Henrik Kristoffersen and Loic Meillard the names to look out for – while the two-man bobsleigh also gets going. Mid-morning sees the quarter-finals of the women’s 1000m short track, semis and final to follow, then we’ve an afternoon of men’s curling, GB taking on Norway and Canada and Sweden both in action after weekend rancour.
Late afternoon, we’ll absorb into the women’s ice hockey semi-final between USA and Sweden then, this evening, we’ve more women’s curling – GB face Switzerland – along with the medal rounds of the women’s big air, Kirsty Muir involved but Eileen Gu the one to beat and Flora Tabanelli the young local hero; the mixed pairs, free program figure skating with Anastasia Vaipan-Law and Luke Digby going for GB but Riku Miura and Ryuichi Kihara of Japan the favourites; the women’s monobob in which 40-year-old Kaillie Humphries seeks her third Olympic gold; and the men’s super team, large hill ski jump. Then, finally, we’ll finish with the second women’s ice hockey semi, in which Switzerland seek to upset Canada.
Esattamente! Andiamo!
