PYEONGCHANG, South Korea (AP) — The Latest on the Pyeongchang Olympics (all times local):

Due to gusty conditions, only 34 of 55 ski jumpers have participated in training for the individual Gunderson normal hill event at the Pyeongchang Olympics, part of Nordic combined. Two of three scheduled practice runs were canceled.

Defending Olympic champion Eric Frenzel led training as high winds continued to affect the Alpensia Ski Jumping Center.

The 29-year-old German had a jump of 108 meters in Monday's training session. The normal hill final is scheduled for Wednesday.

Nordic combined features ski jumping followed later the same day by a 10-kilometer cross-country race.
