Solution
The correct option is
B
couldn't
The correct answer is Option A.
COULDN'T means the inability to do something.
In the given sentence, the skier was unable to compete in the Olympic games.
Thus COULDN'T is the correct answer.
The remaining options are incorrect because:
MUSTN'T expresses absence of compulsion.
HAD TO expresses compulsion.
CAN'T is the present tense, whereas the sentence is in the past tense.
MIGHT expresses the possibility of something.
