(UPDATE: Feb 21. @ 6:15 p.m.) - There's been a time change for the women's ski cross at the 2018 Winter Olympics in PyeongChang.
The event was originally schedule to begin with qualification at 6 p.m. PST on Thursday, but qualification occurred on Wednesday night.
Up next for the event is the first eight elimination heats, which will now begin at 5:00 p.m. PST on Thursday.
That means the start of the Kesley Serwa viewing party has been rescheduled for 4:30 p.m. PST.
You have a little leeway, however, as Serwa won't race until the eighth heat at 5:28 p.m. PST.
Marielle Thompson of Whistler races at 5 p.m. PST, Brittany Phelan of Quebec races at 5:16 p.m. PST and India Sherret of Cranbrook races at 5:20 p.m. PST.
