Jamie Anderson gave Team USA it's second medal of the Games in the women's slopestyle despite less than ideal weather conditions.

She defended her title from the 2014 Sochi Olympics with a dominant performance on her first run where she finished with a score of 83. She had a 10-point lead ahead of Norway's Silje Norendal, who had 73.81 points, and Team USA teammate Jessika Jenson (72.26 points) after the first run.

Heading into the second run, wind conditions worsened and many of the snowboarders faltered on the second jump. Norendal didn't improve on her second run, which only helped Anderson's chances at securing the gold.

It became clear the the two-time Olympian was going to win after many of the competitors suffered from falls. Anderson was asked if she wanted to take a second run and opted to take a victory lap, winning with the score from her first run.

Due to poor weather conditions and high winds in Pyeongchang, the snowboarders competed in two runs rather than the regular three where the best score of the two runs counted.
