Loutitt won the large hill event at a World Cup stop in Sapporo, Japan, in January and finished third in the event last month at Lake Placid, N.Y.

The 2023 world champion was 10th in the overall standings heading into Friday’s World Cup large hill final.

Calgary’s Abigail Strate finished 11th, just missing out on her sixth top-10 result of the season.
