Winter Olympics live updates: Mikaela Shiffrin's final medal chance, US looks for sweep in freeski halfpipe

USA TODAY

The Americans missed the podium Friday at the 2022 Beijing Olympics, but there are plenty of chances for redemption Saturday.

(Miss something? Get caught up on all of Friday's action right here.)

If there's anyone in need of redemption it's Mikaela Shiffrin, who has struggled mightily but has one final chance for a medal in the mixed team parallel alpine event.

The men's skicross halfpipe gives the U.S. their best chance for a medal Saturday, with four American qualifiers led by two-time gold medalist David Wise and Aaron Blunck, who finished first in the qualifying round.
