In the women’s freeski slopestyle competition at the Beijing Winter Olympics on Monday, Whitefish’s Maggie Voisin came in fifth place, just missing out on a spot on the podium.
After a poor first jump on her first run, Voisin scored a 35.48.
On her second attempt, Voisin scored a 74.28, putting her in third place overall, but Anastasia Tatalina of the Russian Olympic Committee, on her third try, scored a 75.51, knocking Voisin off the podium.
Voisin completed a clean run on her third try, but only managed a 66.03 overall score.
Mathilde Gremaud of Switzerland won the gold medal, with China’s Ailing Eileen Gu taking home the silver medal. Kelly Sildaru of Estonia brought home the bronze medal.
