All of this promises to be among the showcase events for the Winter Olympics, at least for American audiences curious.
The icy Olympic halfpipe yawns on the mountainside, waiting to be awakened by the world’s best snowboarders on Wednesday at Genting Snow Park. The women’s qualifications will narrow the field for the final on Thursday. The men’s qualifications that follow will spit out the names of the 12 finalists for Friday. All of that promises to be among the showcase events for the Winter Olympics, at least for American audiences curious to see what Chloe Kim will do next, and what Shaun White might do last. Kim,21, won the gold medal four years ago in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
