Erin Jackson lands gold for USA in women's 500m

Odermatt's calculated risk earns Swiss third Alpine gold
Giant slalom gold medallist Marco Odermatt of Switzerland credited a risky decision to change his skis, despite leading after his first run in Sunday's race, for his country's third Alpine skiing gold medal of the Winter Olympics.
Odermatt was leading after the first run in challenging conditions on the course dubbed "The Ice River", with heavy snow cutting visibility to a minimum and making life tough for the entire field.
He finished his second run with a combined time of 2:09:35, putting him 0.19 seconds ahead of runner-up Zan Kranjec of Slovenia, with France's Mathieu Faivre taking bronze.
"We changed the ski and binding for the second run because I didn't feel so good on the feet after the first run," Odermatt said. "It took some courage to do it after leading the Olympic race but it was definitely the right decision.
"Those 19 hundredths (of a second) are not much. It was definitely because I changed the ski."

Liu makes history for Hungary
Liu's short track speed skating men's 500 metres gold medal gave Hungary its first individual title at a Winter Games on Sunday.
Liu, who had already claimed bronze in the mixed team relay and the 1,000m, led a clean race from start to finish to beat Konstantin Ivliev of the Russian Olympic Committee (ROC) after the other main favourites failed to make it to the final.
Canada's Steven Dubois claimed the bronze, his second medal here after finishing second in the 1,500 metres.
Hungary's only other gold medal at a Winter Olympics came in 2018, when they won the men's 5,000 metres relay in short track speed skating. The country now has 10 Winter Games medals.
