Canada gets skating gold, American Anderson wins slopestyle

PYEONGCHANG, South Korea (AP) — Canada skated to the gold it had been dreaming about for four years.

American Jamie Anderson got another to match the one she won in Sochi.

The Canadians kicked off the third day of full competition at the Pyeongchang Olympics on Monday by winning the team figure skating competition, finishing with the medal they had set their sights on since taking silver in 2014. And, they clinched it before the ice dance — the third event of the day — even began.

"We think we're the best in the world," ice dancer Scott Muir said.
