Redemption for Calgary’s Brady Leman as Team Canada golden on the slopes once again

Canada’s Brady Leman won gold in men’s ski cross on Wednesday at the Pyeongchang Olympics, making up for his fourth-place finish at the Sochi Games four years ago.

Leman, from Calgary, was in the four-man big final with Toronto’s Kevin Drury.

Drury finished fourth after crashing with Sergey Ridzik, an Olympic Athlete from Russia, early in the race.

Ridzik recovered enough to finish behind Leman and Switzerland’s Marc Bischofberger.

David Duncan of London, Ont., was fourth in the small final, putting him eighth overall.

Montreal’s Chris Del Bosco crashed in an earlier heat and was taken to hospital where he was conscious and stable.

A spokesperson for Freestyle Canada told The Canadian Press that Del Bosco has a suspected pelvic injury.
