Preview and Predictions

Four years on from her first Olympic gold in Sochi 2014, Shiffrin is grabbing headlines in Pyeongchang, and the giant slalom will be the first chance for her and Vonn to get on the podium.

Viktoria Rebensburg leads the World Cup rankings in giant slalom, but at just 22, Shiffrin is widely viewed as one of the best skiers ever. The New York Times recently profiled her versatility:

With four years' more experience under her belt, Shiffrin is a strong pick to win in any event in which she competes, with giant slalom offering one of her best chances at gold.

The qualifying for men's luge will take place at 1:30 p.m ET (6:30 p.m. GMT), with the final scheduled for later in the evening. And it's one of the must-watch events of the Winter Olympics.

BBC Sport provided a glimpse at the danger posed by every run, with Germany's Felix Loch getting off to a promising start in the early runs on Saturday as he looks to add a third successive singles gold:

Loch has been the in-form power of the luge after winning gold at Vancouver 2010 and Sochi 2014, and given he's  28, it doesn't look likely this will be the point at which he will back down from the pinnacle of the sport.

Those looking for an off-piste option need only turn their attention to the moguls, wherein the ladies will run through the second qualification run before the three final runs get underway.

Moguls is a discipline of freestyle skiing that doesn't necessarily get the same exposure as alpine skiing equivalents, but even Friday's early qualifying action showcased what it has to offer, via NBC Olympics:

U.S. Biathlon, meanwhile, provided a comprehensive breakdown of the broadcast details for the biathlon events, with the men's 10-kilometre medals to be distributed early on Sunday.
