We've already seen some moguls in action this week, but dual moguls is a little bit different and that's where the first gold medal of day eight will be won.

The skiers still have to navigate a bumpy slope which includes two jumps, but this time they are competing side-by-side on adjacent courses.

The athlete with the highest score advances. It starts with a round of 32, then round of 16, quarter-finals and so on.

And it's just got under way...

Up next is Switzerland's Marco Odermatt, who is arguably the favourite for gold in this discipline.

The 28-year-old has already claimed two medals in the team combined and Super-G events, and he finishes just 0.95 seconds behind the leader to go into second with a time of 1:14.87.

That's more like it.

Canada - who look a wee bit lost here - only take one in the fifth end to leave Team GB ahead at the interval.

Rebecca Morrison's rink look in far better shape here than in their first two matches, but it has been in the second half of those matches where they have lost their way. Can they avoid that this time?

Norway's Henrik Kristofferson is third to grace the course, in what could be his last-ever Winter Olympics.

The 31-year-old, who is Norway's most successful skier, is yet to win Olympic gold but won silver at the Pyeongchang Games in 2018.

It is a decent opening run, but his time of 1:15.85 is far behind that of Luca Pinheiro Braathen.

Marco Schwarz of Austria is another athlete to keep an eye on in this discipline, but he won't be overly happy with his first run offering though - 2.35 seconds behind Pinheiro Braathen.

It's important to remember these athletes haven't had a single practice run on this course in Bormio.

The frustration of the first couple of matches have drawn a couple of wee swears from Team GB's Rebecca Morrison. A bit of a problem when you're mic'd up...

“I have a lack of filter sometimes and I get very angry at myself,” the Aberdonian sheepishly told BBC Sport earlier in the week.

“It’s taken a few warnings for it to get through to me but I’m being quite strict with myself and I'm hoping from the get-go in this competition, I'm going to be on my best behaviour.”

Well, at least the intent was there, Becca...

Speaking of Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the 25-year-old got things underway at the Stelvio Ski Centre.

He hasn't finished lower than second in his five World Cup appearances this season, and he certainly cruised down the course with ease.

He is home in 1:13.92 - a fantastic first run.

Defending champion Marco Odermatt of Switzerland will be aiming for a third Olympic medal, having already claimed team combined silver and Super-G bronze at Milano Cortina.

Raphael Haaser of Austria took the world title last year and finished fifth in the Super-G earlier in the programme, while Switzerland's Loic Meillard and Norway’s Henrik Kristofferson are among those hoping to challenge.

And there could be a bit of history made because Brazil could land a first Winter Olympic medal through Lucas Pinheiro Braathen.

There's already been some alpine skiing action at the Stelvio Ski Centre in Bormio, with the first runs in the men's giant slalom already under way.

It is the third event in the men's alpine skiing programme and medals will be decided across two giant slalom runs which take place over two courses on the same slope.

The skiers have to pass through a series of gates on each course, with only the top 30 athletes from the first course advancing to the second run.

Each competitor's two run times will be added together at the end of the event and the fastest combined total will decide who features on the podium.

The first runs got started at 09:00 GMT so we'll bring you regular updates on all of the action.

The top-seven ranked athletes have been randomly drawn into start numbers 1-7, with the eight next-best skiers being assigned start numbers 8-15 randomly, and the rest of the athletes starting in order of their World Cup start list rank. The remaining skiers are set to start in order of their FIS points, with the fewest going first.

The second runs will take place from 12:30 GMT onwards today - but first let's see who's going to make the top 30...

Medals are in the air! There's a total of eight to play for in Italy today.

• 09:30-11:05 - Women's dual moguls
• 11:00-13:00 - Women's cross-country relay
• 09:00-14:20 - Men's giant slalom
• 13:00-14:35 - Women's biathlon 7.5k sprint
• 15:00-17:05 - Women's speed skating team pursuit
• 17:00-19:50 - Women's skeleton
• 17:45-20:05 - Men's ski jumping large hill
• 19:15-22:10 - Women's short track 3000m relay

Another end and another fabulous shot by Rebecca Morrison. She's uncorked the good stuff early this Saturday morning and stolen one in the fourth. Canada are supposed to be one of the best teams here but, as it stands, they're struggling to find answers for the questions this GB rink are posing.

• Great Britain also lost in the women's curling, with Jen Dodds' rink losing 9-3 to South Korea
• Noways's Johannes Hoesflot Klaebo won a record-equalling eighth Winter Olympic gold in cross-country skiing, winning the men's 10km. Britain's Andrew Musgrave came sixth
• Britain's former world champion Charlotte Bankes was eliminated in the snowboard cross quarter-finals, with Australia's Josie Baff taking gold

Just before we turn our attention to what's coming up today, let's relive some of yesterday's Olympic drama...

There's a huge rivalry between Canada and Great Britain and a lot of the Scottish teams that play against them. The crowds love it, the teams love it.

And generally speaking, we pick up our game to play the Canadians.

It's been much, much better by Team GB this morning against one of the medal contenders. They lost their shape at times during the opening defeats by China and South Korea, but Rebecca Morrison's rink have been bang on it here and lead 3-1 after three ends.

BBC Red Button

There's no time to mess about! Team GB are already in action this morning, with the women's curling team taking on world champions Canada.
