Olympian Shaun White is ready to retire from competitive snowboarding after the current 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
The U.S. athlete and world’s most famous snowboarder made a major career announcement during his fifth Olympic Games.
The 35-year-old athlete, who won halfpipe gold medals at the 2006, 2010 and 2018 Olympics, has signaled before that this would be his last Olympics. But he’s made it official.
Despite his retirement from competitive snowboarding, White also said at the press conference, “I definitely don’t think I’ll be leaving the sport anytime soon. I think the beautiful part about snowboarding is there’s still a life to be had within the sport, outside of competition…I’m excited for that next chapter.” This fan is guessing sports commentator!
