Women's downhill olympics results

It also has a long history of producing some of the most memorable finishes in the Olympics, including a win by Lindsey Vonn back at Sochi 2014.
With a new world-class venue and a more competitive field than usual, it was expected to be a tough competition. This has been proved to be true.
Sofia Goggia was the Olympic gold medalist. She made a strong run in the downhill but fell just short. In the end, she finished fourth behind Italy's Nadia Delago and Russia's Anastasiia Smirnova.
Sweden's Walter Wallberg, a man's mogul, won a gold medal. This was an event in which three athletes from the country finished within the top 10. Mikael of Canada took silver, and Ikuma Hoshiima from Japan took the bronze.
It's been an active week in alpine ski. Despite the adverse weather conditions, Mikaela Shaiffrin from the USA has been hard at work and is still on the track for a medal in these Games.
While she's only been able to ski in two of her five individual events so far, she's regained some confidence after a solid performance last week in the super-G. This will help her prepare to compete in the combined, which is where she is a favorite for a medal.
