American Chloe Kim has won gold in the women’s halfpipe at the Beijing Olympics.
Spain’s Queralt Castellet took silver and Sena Tomita of Japan won bronze.
Kim also won gold at the 2018 Olympics in Pyeongchang. In Beijing, she scored 94 in the first of her three runs, enough for the win.
She performed two 1080s and three spins, and was so ecstatic over her performance she covered her mouth following her finish. She had the highest amplitude of any rider.
