A good start to the day in the Women's Freeski Slopestyle Final from Kirsty Muir, who finished 8th, and Katie Summerhayes, who finished 9th. Both will be pleased with their performances, but disappointed that they couldn't finish closer to the medal positions. In the Men's equivalent, James Woods did not start, succumbing to his back problems.
In the Women's Curling, GB demolished Japan 10-4, greatly helped by scoring 3 shots in each of the 1st and 3rd ends, which finished the game as a contest. There are now probably 7 teams involved in the race for the 4 qualifying places and, with 2 games still to play, there is everything to play for. Tomorrow's game is against China at 01.05.
Lloyd Wallace failed to qualify for the Men's Freestyle Aerials, despite an excellent first run, and finished in 15th place.
Natasha McKay had a disappointing Short Programme in the Women's Figure Skating including a fall and finished 28th.
Brad Hall and Nick Gleeson spectacularly crashed out of the 2-man Bob in Heat 3, but they both walked away unhurt. Amazingly they went back out again in Heat 4 and posted a pretty decent time to eventually finish 11th.
In the Men's Curling GB had an impressive 7-6 win over Sweden to ensure a Semi-final place. Again the score doesn't tell the whole story, as GB got off to a great start and, despite the best efforts of Niklas Edin, GB were always in control of the game. They now take on ROC in tomorrow's game at 06.05.
Tomorrow sees the appearance of Dave Ryding, probably the last Great British hope for an individual medal. He is 13th away in the Men's Slalom at 02.15, followed much later by Billy Major who is 32nd to ski.
And don't forget the Cross-country Skiing Team Sprint event where GB (James Clugnet and Andrew Young) appear in Semi-final 1 at 08.15 (or 09.00 per the BBC). The first 2 in each of the 2 Semi-finals plus the 6 fastest losers will qualify for the Final later on.
Kathryn Thomson skates in Quarter-final 6 of the Women's 1500m Short Track at 11.30 tomorrow, where the best 3 in each race and the 3 fastest 4th place finishers progress to the Semi-finals later.
