I can't speak to number 1 because I did not see her run, but depending on her age, that is a great finish and could bode well for 2022. For the second question, the top 6 move onto the final round. 

Thanks, she is already 29 ... so i guess no. In ski jumping she would probably be called a junior, but in freestyle skiing most athletes of her age are probably retired for almost a decade by that age ...

It is pretty interesting that in freestyle skiing, artistic gymnastics, diving, snowboarding and figure skating mostly very young athletes dominate, i guess that is also the reason why germany is shit in those sports, you have to train very hard from a very early age on.

I just learnt that the german athletes don't get any public funding, so i think this result is good, is it safe to say that canadian athletes get a lot of funding?

fs skiing is the most funded winter sport... so yes

Wow! Shocking that Kauf did not advance.

 

Final will have 2 Canadians, 2 Aussies, 1 Kazakh and 1 French athlete competing for the medals

So no canadian sweep? My condolations.

4 different continents in top 6, name any other winter sport where that is the case ...

No americans in the final is surprising.

I really hope that Australia will win medal. At least bronze.
