For some players, the Olympics brought great joy and proud moments, while for some it was not what they expected it to be. But with all the victories, disappointments, and controversies, it was a blockbuster tournament.

The American champion snowboarder, Chloe Kim, won her second consecutive Olympic gold at Beijing in the women’s halfpipe event and became the first female snowboarder to defend her title in the Olympics. She was filled with joy as she recreated the winning moment. It was as if the hard work really paid off for her in the end. Kim said, “I worked so hard for four years to get back here and do this again.”

While the host, Kelly Clarkson, assumed that she might have left the game because of the jet lag, Chloe revealed that she had a concussion. She said, “I also had a concussion… it was super fun, the game, but at the end I was like, ‘no, I got to go.'” However, the concussion wasn’t because of the super bowl game but it happened during the third run at the Beijing Olympics, as revealed by Chloe.

In the end, she said, “It’s all good though.”
