Five-time Olympic medalist Eileen Gu has gone viral for her impressive response to a reporter asking if she “lost” two gold medals by finishing second.
Gu, 22, became the most decorated women’s freestyle skiing Olympian in history this week with her fourth and fifth medals at the Milan Cortina Games after winning two golds and one silver in the 2022 Beijing Games — but at a press conference Monday, a reporter asked if she considered her two silver medal wins so far at the Winter Olympics as “two silvers gained or two golds lost.”
