Medal Count
Last night was a big night for Team USA. Nathan Chen continued his dominant run in figure skating, completing a near perfect performance and scoring a 113.97 in the men's free skate, earning his first Olympic gold.
Chloe Kim is gearing herself up to be one of the next great Olympians in Team USA's winter history. At 21 years old, she is one of the most electric snowboarders in recent years. She absolutely dominated the women's halfpipe finals, securing the gold in her first run. Kim became the first woman in Olympic history to win back-to-back gold medals in the event.
The third gold medal of the night came from Ashley Caldwell, Chris Lillis and Justin Schoenefeld, who won the inaugural gold in the mixed teams aerial alpine skiing event. Scoring a total of 338.34, it's the first gold medal in any aerial freestyle skiing for the U.S. since 1998. Team USA now sits in 4th in medals, with a total of ten.
