The favorites of the first freestyle competition at the 2010 Winter Olympics included the Americans, the Canadians, who included Jennifer Heil , the reigning 2006 Olympic champion . As the top favorite, there was great pressure of expectation from the Canadian media. These highlighted the fact that so far no Canadian had won an Olympic gold medal at the Olympic Games in their own country (1976 in Montreal and 1988 in Calgary). Heil's trainer said of his athlete: "She's been driving phenomenally through January and I think she has very, very good chances." The athlete herself said she would do anything to cope with the pressure; without this, however, Olympia would not be Olympia.
In qualifying, the North Americans in particular confirmed their role as favorites. On the slope soaked by the constant rain, the American Hannah Kearney won ahead of her Canadian competitor Heil because of the faster time and the better attitude when skiing, which the jury rated as better. In addition to these two factors, the two jumps completed during the run also played a role; Heil was able to score a higher score there. Kearney, who failed in qualifying last time, was not entirely satisfied with her performance: "I felt I was very fast, but on the helicopter jump I made a little mistake when I bent my knee." Both Kearney and Heil also had no problems with the external circumstances. Heil said she got used to it. Kearney even saw the advantage that the freezing moisture would make the route faster. Behind them were three other Americans and two Canadians in the top ten. The best non-American athlete was Aiko Uemura from Japan in fifth. Margarita Marbler , the only Austrian in the field, made it into the final in eighth place.
The final was opened in front of 12,000 spectators by three consecutive Russian women. These played just as little a role in the medal award as the other athletes who started in the first half of the final. The first serious runner was the Canadian Chloé Dufour-Lapointe . She got good posture grades, especially in the jumps, and finally came in fifth. After her started Marbler, who had calculated medal chances in advance. However, after only showing safety jumps and weaknesses in the first jump, as in the qualification, she ultimately classified herself sixth. She expressed her disappointment: “This is a competition in which only the first three count. My dream did not come true. ”Before the final contenders for victory hit the slopes, Shannon Bahrke took the lead. She won the bronze medal in the end after finishing second in Turin in 2006. Heather McPhie started as the third best runner from the qualification and made a good run until shortly after her second jump, but then fell and fell back to 18th place.
Of the two favorites, Jennifer Heil had to complete her run first as second in qualification. She showed the best performance so far and took the lead from Bahrke with a 0.26 point lead. When their interim top position was announced, cheers broke out in the audience. She later stressed that it would have been like "standing on the shoulders of all Canadians"; at the awards ceremony she thanked her supporters. But it wasn't enough for victory, as Kearney was the last starter to receive the highest number of points in all three categories. Their victory was clear, with almost a full point ahead. After Donna Weinbrecht in 1992, Kearney was the second US Olympic champion in this discipline.
