The women's moguls of Freestyle Skiing 2018 during the 2018 Winter Olympics was held on 9-11 February 2018 in the Phoenix Snow Park. With 30 athletes competing, the event was won by Perrine Laffont from France, with Justine Dufour-Lapointe from Canada taking the silver medal and Yulia Galysheva from Kazakhstan taking bronze.

Format

The competition exists out of two separate rounds. The qualification consists out of two rounds, both conducted on two separate days. In the first round of the qualifications, every athlete receives a score based on a single performance, after which the ten best scores qualify for the final rounds. The remaining athletes go down the slope once more three days later, to receive another score. The ten best scores (in either run) advance to the final as well.

The final consists out of three rounds of a single run, with after every round a selected amount of athletes advancing to the next round. After three rounds (with 20, 12, and 6 athletes, respectively), the winner is decided based on the best run in the third round of the final.
