Eileen Gu is one of the biggest breakout stars from the Beijing Winter Olympics.

The freestyle skier had already made a name for herself in China by claiming X Games golds in the superpipe and slopestyle events last year and she now has an Olympic gold to add to her CV at just 18 years old.

Her stunning performance in the women’s big air in Beijing saw her top the podium ahead of France's Tess Ledeux (silver) and Mathilde Gremaud (bronze).
