19 Women Athletes to Watch at the 2022 Olympics

Sport: Snowboarding (Halfpipe)
Country: USA

Chloe Kim was just 17 when she won halfpipe gold at the 2018 Olympics. In the four years since, Kim took a break from snowboarding, enrolled at Princeton, and returned to the sport refreshed and in a better place with her mental health. The time off didn't slow Kim down in the slightest, either; she has kept racking up competition wins and is considered a favorite to defend her Olympic gold.
