After an awkward first jump on her first run, Voisin managed just a 35.48.

Voisin scored a 74.28 on her second run, vaulting her into the bronze spot. However, Anastasia Tatalina from the Russian Olympic Committee scored a 75.51 on her third attempt, bouncing Voisin from the podium.

Voisin landed a clean run on her third attempt, but only scored a 66.03.

Switzerland's Mathilde Gremaud took the gold, while China's Ailing Eileen Gu took the silver. Kelly Sildaru of Estonia took home the bronze.
