ZHANGJIAKOU, China — It seemed like the appropriate thing to ask on Valentine’s Day: What does ski superstar Eileen Gu love the most? In a short interview after her halfpipe practice Monday, the Stanford-bound 18-year-old, who is competing for her mom’s home country of China, thought about the question and came up with this list.
“I’d say there’s one gold pin I got from a volunteer. It’s a Beijing 2022 gold pin that has rhinestones around it. It’s very rare. And my gold medal from big air, that’s probably my most prized possession. My cats. I love them very much. Truffle oil. And I love skiing, I love competing and I love fresh air.”
Gu has a chance for three gold medals at the Beijing Olympics. She goes for win No. 2 on Tuesday in the slopestyle finals.AP NEWS
