China's 'snow princess' Eileen Gu won Olympic gold in the halfpipe final to add to her big air gold and slopestyle silver, in Beijing on Friday.

"I will go to the University of Stanford this autumn. Going to Stanford and winning the Olympic gold are the biggest goals in my life. I reached both of them. I am really happy. To be honest, I think I am a nerd and love studying. I am the only full-time high school student in high-level contests like the World Cup. I always attach importance to education," she said.
