Jakara Anthony came victorious in the freestyle skiing women’s moguls at the Genting Snow Park in Chongli, Zhangjiakou on Sunday, thus becoming the first Australian female to win an Olympic moguls gold.
It was also the first gold for Australia at Beijing 2022, and the Russian Olympic Committee, Germany, Japan and New Zealand also took their first golds at the Games.
Anthony had a stable performance throughout her three runs and claimed the eventual victory with 83.09 points.
“I am just over the moon. I’m just lost for words. This is an incredible feeling. I really feel like it was my best run on the course and I’m so proud that I was able to let myself ski like that,” the 23-year-old said.
