Now, the 27-year-old Olympian believes it’s simply a matter of upping the mental game in her quest to reach the podium at the 2017 world championships and the 2018 Winter Games in PyeongChang, South Korea. “I’m a really intense person,” Gagnon said Friday after finishing sixth in the combined event at the world championships in St. Moritz, Switzerland. “For me it’s a good solid result to have a top-six, but I guess I was expecting a little more,” Gagnon said. Three more medal chances await Gagnon at the world championships in slalom, giant slalom and the team event. Guay and Osborne-Paradis will attempt to reach the podium again in the men’s downhill Saturday.
