INTERVIEW – STEVE KASTENBAUM – Correspondent in Pyeongchang, South Korea – recapped the Olympics
- The United States has come away with a bronze medal in team figure skating during Day 3 of the Winter Games.
- Mirai Nagasu has become the first American woman and third overall to land a triple axel in the Olympics, accomplishing the rare feat in the women’s free skate at the team competition.
- American Jamie Anderson won the second gold medal for the U.S. at the Games, taking the women’s slopestyle snowboarding amid blustery conditions.
- For the second day in a row, strong wind gusts forced the postponement of a premier event at the Olympics in Pyeongchang. Frigid temperatures were compounded by up to 40 MPH gusts, leading to the women’s giant slalom competition being rescheduled for Thursday. The men’s downhill was also postponed until Thursday. Conditions were too dangerous at the top of the alpine centers but they’re expected to improve later in the week.
