Pyeongchang medallist Matt Graham misses out on men's moguls final
Pyeongchang silver medallist Matt Graham has missed out on the finals of the men's moguls competition at the Winter Olympics in Beijing, after the Australian was unable to produce in the vital second qualifying run.
Graham's lead-up to the Games had been interrupted when he broke his collarbone last December and had to have surgery. "At that point, I knew the run was more or less over, but I was just trying to fight the whole way down just to at least put a run down after the other night, I was pretty embarrassed after I did not finish."
Summers was 11th after initial qualifying, and he took the second of 10 available spots for the finals, improving his score with an impressive run worth 77.93 points.
