The women's slopestyle competition in freestyle skiing at the 2026 Winter Olympics was held on 7 February (qualification) and 9 February (final), at the Livigno Snow Park in Valtellina.[1] Mathilde Gremaud of Switzerland successfully defended her 2022 title, and the 2022 silver medalist, Eileen Gu, representing China, won the silver again. Megan Oldham of Canada won bronze, her first Olympic medal.

Background

The defending champion Mathilde Gremaud and the silver medalist Eileen Gu both qualified for the event. The bronze medalist Kelly Sildaru did not qualify. The field also included the 2018 champion Sarah Höfflin. There were only three events in 2025–26 FIS Freestyle Ski World Cup in slopestyle before the Olympics; they were won by Gremaud, Kirsty Muir and Gu. Gremaud and Marin Hamill were leading the World Cup standings. Gremaud was also the 2025 World champion. Gremaud, Gu, and Muir qualified for the finals, Hamill and Höfflin did not.

Summary

In the finals, only Gremaud and Gu got more than 80 points for their performance, and it was essentially competition between them. Gu lead after the first run with 86.58, against Gremaud's 83.60. However, in the second run Gremaud improved to 86.96, which was sufficient for gold, and Gu did not improve. The third run was unsuccessful for both of them. Oldham was in the third position with 69.76 after the first run, and in the third run improved to 76.46. The only other athlete to perform above 70 points was Muir. After two unsuccessful runs, she got 76.05 in the third run, but this was not sufficient for a medal.
