Olympic wake-up call: O'Dine overcomes a snowboard to the head for 2nd medal

Sometimes, life knocks you down with a snowboard. Luckily for Canada, Meryeta O'Dine knows just what to do when that happens.

O'Dine was knocked to the snow in the final of the mixed snowboard cross event, when Italy's Caterina Carpano landed on the Canadian after flying off a jump.

The 24-year-old from Prince George, B.C., quickly got up, hopped up the next jump and got back on course to finish the race, winning a bronze medal with teammate Éliot Grondin on Saturday.

It's Canada's eighth bronze medal of the 2022 Beijing Olympic Winter Games, and the country's 13th medal overall.

Dubreuil misses 500m podium

Canadian speed skater Laurent Dubreuil narrowly missed the Olympic podium in the men's 500 metres by three-hundredths of a second, finishing in fourth place.

It's the first time the Levis, Que., native has missed the podium at that distance all season.

"I won't lie, I'm absolutely disappointed. I came here to win a medal and to be only three hundredths off the podium, it's a tough day for me at the office," he told CBC Sports' Anastasia Bucsis after the race.

Calgary's Gilmore Junio, competing in his third Olympics, finished in 21st. Olympic rookie Antoine Gelinas-Beaulieu from Sherbrooke, Que., finished 29th.

McMorris apologizes to teammate for comments

Max Parrot says he's received an apology from teammate Mark McMorris, after the latter Canadian criticized the judging in the slopestyle competition — in which Parrot won gold.

Parrot said there were no hard feelings over McMorris' comments.

"He actually came to me earlier today and he apologized for his non-sportsmanship," Parrot said. "I told him no worries."

In the final of the competition, Parrot missed a grab on one of his tricks. But the error was missed by the judges and Parrot's score wasn't penalized for it. McMorris later told CBC Sports he "kind of had the run of the day."
