She wants three gold medals in "her" Olympic Games, she of American origins who acquired Chinese nationality in 2019 thanks to her mother. Eileen Gu started off on the right foot, signing a real feat to conquer the Beijing 2022 title in the freeski big air final: it took a crazy "1620" to place a 94.50 score in the third run to overtake the main favorite, a champion like the French Tess Ledeux, forced to silver in front of the Swiss Mathilde Gremaud, who in turn left the Canadian Oldham off the podium.
For Gu, now the mission is to win the gold medal between slopestyle and halfpipe, but the next appointment with the freestyle specialties concerns men and is scheduled in a few hours: Wednesday at 11.00 local time (4.00 in Italy ), there will be the challenge for the men's big air freeski title with a blue at the start, an excellent Leonardo Donaggio who hit the final with the tenth qualifying score.
