Red Gerard can’t pull off golden repeat trick in slopestyle as U.S. fails to medal

LA Times  

Olympic volunteers lined up shoulder to shoulder at Genting Snow Park’s slopestyle course to witness history. Su, a 17-year-old Olympic rookie, won China’s first Olympic men’s snowboarding medal, taking home silver in slopestyle Monday. Su was the second teenager in as many Games to finish on the podium for men’s slopestyle snowboarding after Gerard won gold in 2018 at 17. “Fourth never feels good,” Gerard said, noting he didn’t completely agree with the judging. “I was 17 years old,” Gerard said before the competition, “and put me in the spot to force me to mature a little bit.” Gerard’s post-Olympic media tour took him to New York and on late-night talk show couches he had previously seen only on TV.
