While you were sleeping: How Canada performed at the Beijing Olympics Saturday, Sunday

Snowboarder Laurie Blouin came in fourth place Saturday evening in the women's slopestyle event, while Canada remains in medal contention in the figure skating team event.

Canadian athletes missed out on a podium finish at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics on Saturday evening, while others kept their medal hopes alive on Sunday morning.

Here’s what you may have missed from the overnight competition.

Quebec City snowboarder Laurie Blouin gave it all she had in the women’s slopestyle event but couldn’t crack the top three of a highly competitive field.

Blouin sat fifth heading into her third and final run. While she closed with by far her best performance of the day, a crisp and clean run that scored her an impressive 81.41 points, she was only able to move up one spot in the standings.

Canada will get another shot at a snowboard slopestyle medal in Monday’s men’s event.

Regina’s Mark McMorris finished second in qualifying on Sunday, with an impressive score of 83.30 points in his second run carrying him through to the final.

Sebastian Toutant of L’Assomption, Que., was eighth overall and Max Parrot of Bromont, Que., was 10th.

Canadian Madeline Schizas made her Olympic debut in the figure skating team event.
