The U.S. will once again have some of the biggest names in the Olympics competing again for gold.

Shaun White will be back in the games at 35, and he'll be looking to pick up his fourth and final Olympic gold medal before he heads into retirement. (UPDATE: He finished fourth in his farewell event.) Chloe Kim, the reigning gold medalist in the snowboard halfpipe, will also give the U.S. another strong contender in snowboarding. (UPDATE: Kim repeated as women's halfpipe champion and became only two-time gold medalist in the event.)

Nathan Chen has dominated on the world stage since winning bronze in figure skating in 2018, and the 22-year-old figures to be a strong contender for the top spot on the podium this year. He has already set a world record during the individual short program and eyes the gold medal on Thursday. (UPDATE: Chen comfortably won gold with a powerful free skate.)   

Mikaela Shiffrin will be making her third trip to the Olympics and will be hoping to claim her third gold medal in alpine skiing. (UPDATE: She went 0 for the games individually after crashing again in the combined.)

But it was Lindsey Jacobellis who became the first member from Team USA to capture gold, doing it in the women's snowboard cross.
