New York Post:
Eileen Gu needed to pull something out of the bag.
Going into her third run in the women’s slopestyle event, Gu sat in eighth place, having scored a pedestrian 69.90 on her first run and taken a fall off a rail on her second run. A medal favorite coming in, one run was all that stood between Gu and disappointment in an event in which she had taken gold in the 2021 X Games.
With a fearless series of jumps, two 900s sandwiching a 1080, Gu came up with the run she needed to boost her score into a podium place, with an 86.23.
