Ski cross made its Olympic debut on Sunday with three Canadians advancing to the medal round.

Only 32 skiers advanced to the final at Cypress Mountain.

Canada is a heavy favourite to medal with the potential to sweep the podium if they can manage clean runs.

Top Canadian was Chris Del Bosco who qualified in second place with a time of 1:12:89. Stanley Hayer finished in 10th place and Davey Barr in 25th.

The fastest time went to Michael Schmid of Switzerland with a time of 1:12:53. Notable mentions include Xavier Kuhn of France, Andreas Matt of Austria and his teammate Thomas Zangerl.

Czech Republic’s Zdenek Safar had a spill halfway through his race and did not complete the run.

The medal run is set to go at 12:15 p.m. (PST.)
