As recently as this weekend, it was unknown whether Team USA could claim a third luge berth for the upcoming Games. Chris Mazdzer , the PyeongChang 2018 singles silver medalist, barely qualified for a third singles spot – but missed out on doubles. He and partner Jayson Terdiman crashed during a World Cup qualifying race on Friday, blowing their opportunity to compete in the Olympic event.
It will be Mazdzer's fourth Olympic Games.
Instead, Zach Di Gregorio , 20, and Sean Hollander , 21, will make their Olympic debuts.
