Sunday Preview

The U.S. Olympic team will be hoping to add to its medal tally on Sunday with hopes high in the freestyle skiing events. Sunday sees the finals of both the slopestyle and the men's aerial events at the Phoenix Ski Park.

Gus Kenworthy and Nick Goepper won medals in the 2014 Sochi Games in Russia and will be out for glory again. They are joined by McRae Williams and Alex Hall, who are enjoying their first Olympics.

Kenworthy has confirmed he has suffered a broken thumb, but it remains to be seen how much that will hinder his progress:

Gus Kenworthy @guskenworthy

Broke my thumb yesterday in practice. It won't stop me from competing (obvi) but it does prevent me from shaking Pence's hand so... Silver linings! Will be giving my teammates (and literally everyone else) an enthusiastic "thumbs up!" of encouragement the rest of the trip. https://t.co/XylPPGAq9P

The Americans face competition for the podium places from Switzerland's Andri Ragettli, who is a real contender. He's also showed just how much he is looking forward to the event: 

Andri ragettli @Andriragettli

Tomorrow it’s on!😍🙏Cant wait to drop and show my skiing to the world!🌎 never been this excited wuhu!💯I’ve always been dreaming about it, tomorrow I have the chance to do it!💯😍🔥💭 Let’s get it!🎉🇨🇭 #EnjoyIt #LetsGetIt #Pyeongchang #Olympics #DreamBig #Excited https://t.co/0xITqz28aB

Sweden's Henrik Harlaut, Oystein Braaten of Norway and Sweden's Oscar Wester are also strong contenders with the gold medal up for grabs on Sunday.

There will also be medals handed out in the biathlon as the men's 15-kilometre mass start takes place.

France's Martin Fourcade will be going for his fourth Olympic gold medal, having already claimed his third at the 2018 Pyeongchang Games, per the Olympics Twitter account:

Olympics @Olympics

It's #gold for @martinfkde in men's #biathlon 12.5km pursuit. 👏👏👏 Congratulations to Martin, now a three times #Olympics champion! #PyeongChang2018 https://t.co/DihoUny2KY

Norway's Johannes Boe will also be hoping to pick up his second gold of these Winter Olympics after beating Fourcade and finishing top of the pile in the men's 20-kilometre biathlon. 

The win left Boe in tears as he claimed his first Olympic medal in his eighth event. He described the win as "very special," per Tom Dougherty for NBCOlympics.com.

Fourcade will be hoping to bounce back from what was a disappointing showing and pip Boe to gold, with both men the big favourites going into the 15-kilometre event.
