Chloe Kim may only be 17-years-old, but she has already won gold in the PyeongChang Winter Olympics.
Kim earned her medal in women’s snowboard halfpipe Tuesday morning, and she set the bar high on her very first run, scoring at 93.75. It gave her a huge lead over the rest of the competitors.

No one could match Kim, but that didn’t stop her in her final run. Kim attempted to land her most technical sequence of back-to-back 1080s, which tripped her up during her second run. But she accomplished it in her final run, ending with a final score of 98.25.
“I was like tearing up and wanted to cry, but I just knew I wasn’t going to be happy, even if I went home with the gold, if I knew I could do better,” Kim said. “So that third run was really just to prove myself that I deserved it and did everything I could. I’m so happy.”
And Kim definitely didn’t disappoint. Her win was the 99th gold medal of all-time for the US at the Winter Olympics.
Kim also took to Twitter to share her feelings—about food.

While we may not have gold medals, we can for sure sympathize with Kim’s hangriness.
