PYEONGCHANG, South Korea (AP) — After dominating the ski jumping World Cup this season, Maren Lundby wasn't about to be denied on the sport's biggest stage.
The 23-year-old Norwegian overcame frigid temperatures Monday to win the women's ski jumping normal hill gold medal at the Pyeongchang Olympics.
Lundby, who has won seven of 10 events this season, nailed a jump of 110 meters for 264.6 points to capture Norway's second gold medal of the games.
"I knew when I landed I had won because I saw the green light go on," Lundby said, referring to the light that indicates how far you have to jump to take the lead.
