'King of the Moguls' Kingsbury bows out on top with Olympic dual moguls gold
Canada's "King of the Moguls" Mikael Kingsbury signed off his Olympic career in style on Sunday, winning the men's dual moguls to collect his fifth medal at a Winter Games.
The 33-year-old fell marginally behind Ikuma Horishima early in the super final in Livigno but his Japanese opponent lost control, flying over the second jump with no tricks to cross the line first.
Kingsbury kept his cool and knew he had won as he finished, spreading out his arms in trumph.
Australia's Matt Graham took the bronze.
Dual moguls, making its Olympic debut at the Milan-Cortina Games, is a freestyle skiing event in which two athletes compete side by side on a bumpy course featuring two jumps, where they perform aerial tricks.
Kingsbury, competing at his final Olympics, won moguls gold in the singles competition in 2018 in Pyeongchang and has taken three silvers in the event, in 2014, 2022 and earlier in these Games.
In all his Olympic and world championship appearances, he has been absent from only one podium -- dual moguls at the 2017 World Championships.
He is also the only moguls skier in history to claim a century of World Cup victories.
