One day after U.S. speedskater Erin Jackson made history in the 2022 Beijing Olympics, newly-minted American Kaillie Humphries followed suit in the bobsled.
The 36-year-old Canadian native captured gold in the Olympic debut of monobob after a dominating performance on the sliding track. Humphries took a commanding lead after the first two heats on Sunday then sealed the deal Monday in the final two heats to win her third Olympic gold after winning the two-man events at the 2010 and 2014 Games.
U.S. teammate Elana Meyers Taylor brought home her fourth career Olympic medal, winning the silver after rallying in the final two heats.
