Three events have been decided in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi and the medal tally is starting to take shape.
Team USA took home the first gold of the games with Sage Kotsenburg winning the Men’s Slopestyle snowboarding. It was a somewhat controversial result in Canada, with snowboarding fans complaining that countryman Mark McMorris was unfairly scored for a difficult run.
