FREESTYLE SKIING: Women’s Halfpipe Final

6.30pm BBC Two/TNT Sports 4

Izzy Atkin won bronze in 2018 in slopestyle and halfpipe gold is a possibility for her younger sister, Zoe. In halfpipe, the hardest trick is going big. Judges will always prioritise a big run above a technical run and give you those extra points to get you over the line. Technically and physically, Eileen Gu and Zoe are evenly matched, but mentally, Zoe has the upper hand because she’s not distracted by other disciplines. Right now, it’s hers to lose. ED LEIGH

CURLING: Men’s Final

6.05pm BBC Two/TNT Sports 2

Bruce Mouat's rink stuttered against the top teams during the preliminary campaign, but they did enough to progress and that was all they needed to do. In a straight shootout, they have the ability to dispatch anyone on their day, proven by their defeat of the previously undefeated Switzerland team in the semi-finals. Mouat & Co. are peaking at the right time and suddenly boast an air of inevitability, that whatever comes before, 'Bruce Almighty' is always poised to cook up a moonshot. A nation expects.
