PARIS — Canada’s Sophiane Methot has won the bronze medal in women’s trampoline gymnastics at the Paris Olympics.
The 26-year-old from Varennes, Que., earned a score of 55.650 in the single-exercise final on Friday, behind Britain’s Briony Page and the Belarusian gymnast Viyaleta Bardzilouskaya, who is competing as a neutral athlete.
Methot had been in second place until Page rocketed into the top spot with a score of 56.480.
The Canadian was pushed down into third with only one athlete left to perform — China’s Hu Yicheng, who made a mistake during her performance and earned a score of 11.790.
