Alpine team event: It’s the USA vs. Slovakia, and the first US skier is none other than Mikaela Shiffrin, who gets a good start and looks as smooth as can be. No missed gates, no problem. 1-0 USA.
Curling: Beautiful shot by Japanese vice Chinami Yoshida to bury a red rock behind the multitude of guards out front, but Vicki Wright goes bang-bang up the middle (promotion takeout or raise or runback in curling lingo) to remove it.
