Nah. Bowman has very little chance, unfortunately, as his particular style of run is not likely to be scored well even though it will be a crowd favourite and one of the more fun ones to watch. It would take some strange judging, a comp with a bunch of falls (bad pipe or bad weather), or a perfect showing to get the 90+ score that it takes for a podium finish. But it'll be great to watch him ski. On the other hand, Riddle's issue is always about putting his run down. If he can execute it, it's very much in contention for a medal. The issue is mostly that Wise and Yater-Wallace should, unless something goes very wrong for them, have two podium spots more or less locked up, so everyone's battling for that third spot.
