Kelly Sildaru qualifies for final of women's freeski slopestyle at Beijing 2022

Kelly Sildaru laid down two stunning qualifying runs to comfortably qualify for the women's freeski slopestyle final at Beijing 2022.

The 19-year-old from Estonia opened with 80.96 on Monday (14 February), which would have guaranteed her spot in the final. She followed it up with a 86.15 to top the qualification rankings.

Sildaru shared with us before the Winter Olympics what it meant for her country to be involved in the event. She took gold at the Lausanne 2020 Youth Olympic Games (YOG), ahead of Ailing (Eileen) Gu. Chinese star Gu also qualified for Tuesday's final, where the medals will be decided.

The final takes place on the morning of Tuesday (15 February) in China, after the freestyle ski slopestyle events were delayed for 24-hours due to weather conditions.
