“My goal is to win Olympic gold”: China’s YOG champion Gu looks ahead to Beijing 2022
Chinese freestyle skier Eileen Gu was already a winner on the FIS World Cup circuit before competing at the Winter Youth Olympic Games (YOG) Lausanne 2020. After winning YOG gold in both halfpipe and big air, as well as a silver in slopestyle, the 17-year-old has firmly established herself as one of the rising stars in the sport, and is now hoping to inspire others as she targets a return to the podium on home snow at the Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022.
