Jung Dae Yoon of the Seoul Ski Association was eliminated in the first round of the men’s moguls final in freestyle skiing at the 2026 Milan-Cortina d’Ampezzo Winter Olympics.
Competing at the Aerials and Moguls Park in Livigno, Italy, Jung scored 34.28 points in the first final round on Wednesday (Korea time). He placed 19th out of 20 and did not advance to the second final, which is limited to the top eight.
Moguls are judged on turns, aerial maneuvers on the jumps and time on a course lined with bumps.
Jung had to fight through qualifying to reach the final. He scored 65.51 points in the first qualifier, placing 27th out of 29 and missing automatic qualification. In the second qualifier, he posted 77.36 points to finish fourth and claim an additional spot in the final.
In the final, he lost significant points after losing balance on the run, including a slip in the middle of the course that drew deductions. He later attempted a four-rotation aerial move, but it was not enough to move up the standings.
Jung will return to competition in the men’s dual moguls on Feb. 15.
