Canada’s three-time Olympic bronze-medal snowboarder Mark McMorris crashed Wednesday night during big air training for the Milan Cortina Games and had to be taken off the course on a stretcher. The 32-year-old McMorris, making his fourth appearance at the Olympics, was getting ready for Thursday night’s qualifying, set for about 24 hours before the opening ceremony. Officials from Canada’s snowboard team did not immediately respond to emails from The Associated Press asking about McMorris’ condition.
