Kim is heavily favored to defend her gold medal. Since becoming the youngest woman to win an Olympic snowboarding gold in 2018, her skills have only improved.

Queralt Castellet of Spain, who finished third in the 2021 World Championships halfpipe, is expected to be one of Kim's stiffest competitors. Team USA's Maddie Mastro, 21, has also been strong in recent World Championship events, earning bronze in 2019 and silver in 2021.
Growing up in California, Chloe Kim is always asked why she picked snowboarding over surfing or skating. But the Olympic gold medalist says she’s just grateful she found the sport that she loves.Outside of Kim, there are seven other women's snowboarders competing on Tuesday night. Mastro, Zoe Kalapos and Tessa Maud will join Kim in the halfpipe. Lindsey Jacobellis, Faye Gulini, Stacy Gaskill and Meghan Tierney are competing in the snowboarding cross.
