The 29-year-old sealed the biggest win of his career -- he came sixth at Sochi four years ago -- to win ahead of China's Jia Zongyang, in silver, and Ilia Burov of the Olympic Athletes from Russia, who took bronze.

It was fourth time lucky at the Winter Games for Abramenko, who placed 24th at Vancouver 2010 and was 27th at Turin 2006.
