Shaun White wins Dew Tour halfpipe

Shaun White won for the first time in almost two years, topping a strong field at the Dew Tour Mountain Championships in Breckenridge, Colo., on Saturday.

White, the 2006 and 2010 Olympic halfpipe champion, scored 92.60 in his first of two runs with a pair of 1080s and his patented double McTwist 1260, according to commentators.

White, who was also No. 1 in qualifying Thursday, beat a field that included Iouri Podladtchikov, the Swiss who won the Sochi Olympics. Olympic silver medalist Ayumu Hirano was second, followed by Podladtchikov in third.
