A great final lap by Canada's Courtney Sarault led to an Olympic bronze medal.
The Canadian short-track speedskater finished third with a big comeback in the women's 500 metres on Thursday.
It is her second medal of the Olympics after she helped Canada win silver in the mixed relay.
Speaking after her medal ceremony, Sarault told CBC's Devin Heroux that she made the choice to add the shorter distance to her repertoire and spent the summer training to compete in the 500 metre.
"He trusted me, and we went to work and now I'm standing here with an Olympic medal."
The Netherlands' Xandra Velzeboer took the gold, while Italy's Arianna Fontana claimed silver on home ice in Milan.
Sarault and her Canadian teammate Kim Boutin were trailing heading into the final lap, but a strong push from the 25-year-old from Moncton pushed her past Dutch skater Selma Poutsma to claim bronze.
"It's not over until it's over," Sarault added, explaining she was struggling with turning on the inside throughout the race. "I'm known to be a fighter, and I wasn't gonna give up if it wasn't working on the inside, I was going to try to take it on the outside. And that's what I did. I just left everything I had on the ice and it got me a bronze medal."
She won silver earlier these Games in mixed-team relay, authoring a viral moment where she narrowly avoided a collision to help her team to the podium.
Meanwhile, Canadian William Dandjinou suffered Olympic heartbreak in men's short-track speedskating 1,000 metre event, finishing fourth place and off the podium after he was heavily favoured to take home gold.
Even though he failed to medal, Dandjinou felt he still had a good race.
"Honestly, I was where I wanted to be with one lap to go, slipped out of the corner a little bit," the 24-year-old from Sherwood, Que., told Heroux after his race. "The field is so strong, can't make a mistake. So, that cost me a lot today. You know, it happens. And I'll be back."
Favoured to win the gold in this event, Dandjinou was in the lead until the final lap, where he was unable to match the final push from his competitors.
"I was feeling good, man, that's why it's so disappointing because I knew I could have done great things, and I was so close to doing a podium and probably even a gold," Dandjinou continued. "That's part of life, that's part of short-tracking.
"Honestly, if being fourth at the Games is a low for me, I'll take that."
Jens van 't Wout of the Netherlands took home gold, while China's Sun Long and Rim Jong-un of South Korea rounded out the podium with silver and bronze, respectively.
Dandjinou won't have long to dwell on the loss, though, as his next race takes place on Saturday.
