American snowboarding star Chloe Kim has won her second straight Olympic gold medal in the women’s halfpipe.
The 21-year-old put together an incredible performance in the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics to win gold.
Kim locked up the gold medal with an absolutely ridiculous first run, resulting in a score of 94.00.

Kim topped Spain’s Queralt Castellet (90.25) and Japan’s Sena Tomita (88.25) for the gold.
In 2018, Kim — at 17 — became the youngest female Olympic gold medalist in snowboarding history.
Here’s a sampling of how the sports world has reacted to Kim’s winning the gold again:

The fact that Chloe Kim is so good that they’re like “nobody else can touch that at all. Gold medal. This will go on for another 90 minutes.”
