At one point, the 2022 Olympics gold medal winner Chloe Kim was so fed up with the fame that she wanted to quit the sport altogether. While many athletes have been irked by fans who worship them, Kim wanted people to see her apart from being just a snowboarder. However, thankfully, she decided against that and recently won gold at the ongoing Beijing Winter Olympics. The half-pipe legend is one of the best snowboarders in the world and has continued her winning streak. After becoming the first woman to claim back-to-back gold medals in the event, Chloe Kim must be happy right now; although she was not before. CHLOE KIM WAS FED UP WITH SNOWBOARDING QUESTIONS As she attended school in her country, Chloe [https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/chloe-kim/] talked about students always wanting to talk to her about snowboarding and snowboarding alone, which she disliked. Moreover, winning a gold medal for your country puts you on the map. Quitting the sport was a serious option for her as she talked about those stages in her life. “Honestly, I think I hated it for the first time in my life. Post-Olympics, every conversation I had with anyone was always about snowboarding, like nothing about myself. And I’m like, ‘Alright, if that’s all you care about then I’m out’,” said [https://www.today.com/news/beijing-olympics/snowboarder-chloe-kim-explains-dads-trick-helping-fall-kid-rcna15299] Kim. chloe kim [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Chloe-Kim-2.jpg] Significantly, she said that a return to snowboarding would happen only if she missed the sport. The rest, as they say, is history.

After winning back-to-back gold medals, she is on top of the snowboarding charts. It may take some time for people to forget about what she has achieved.

The Beijing Winter Olympics 2022 will commence on the 4th of February and continue until the 20th of February 2022 in Beijing, China. While some competitions start on February 2nd, the majority of the competitions start after the Opening Ceremony on the 4th of February. Likewise, Beijing is the first city in the world to host both the Winter and Summer Olympics. The famous Bird's Nest National stadium would be used for both the Opening and Closing ceremonies.

REUTERS/Fabrizio Bensch[/caption]

The sporting events will take place in three different zones. Beijing, Yanqing, and Zhangjiakou are the three zones. Moreover, the <a href="https://www.insider.com/real-cost-of-beijing-games-10-times-chinas-reported-figure-2022-1" target="_blank" rel="noopener">budget</a> of the games is $3.9 billion which is said to be a cheap event from the last two Olympic Games. The Olympic mascot is a panda named Bing Dwen Dwen. Bing means ice as it <a href="https://olympics.com/en/beijing-2022/mascot" target="_blank" rel="noopener">symbolizes</a> purity and strength while Dwen Dwen means robust and lively symbolizing children. The event will have some of the major competitors in the world like Shaun White, Mikaela Shiffrin, and Chloe Kim, who are some of the leading contenders.
<h3>What is Winter Olympics?</h3>
Just like the Summer Olympics, the International Olympic Committee organizes both Olympic events. Although the Summer Olympics is incredibly famous, the organizers hold the Winter Olympics during Winter as the name suggests. There are many differences between these two Olympic Games. While the Summer Olympics is host to around 200 or more countries, the Winter Olympics has below 100 countries in the competition. Hence, the size is small. That means lesser coverage and viewership across the globe. Some of the sports competitions include skiing, snowboarding, ice hockey, curling, figure skating, etc.
<h3>How did Winter Olympics start?</h3>
With the Olympics having its birthplace in Greece, the first events were called as Nordic Games. The Scandinavian countries were the primary participants in the Games. From there, they held different Olympic Games; however, most of them <a href="https://www.britannica.com/story/the-origin-of-the-winter-olympics" target="_blank" rel="noopener">were held</a> in Sweden. Seeing the potential, the IOC suggested Sweden hold a separate Winter Olympics. With the essence of the Nordic Games still intact, they refused to do it. On the other hand, Germany loved the idea and decided to host the Winter Olympics. But, World War I forced the cancellation of the Games. From there, everything fell into place for the 1924 Winter Olympics, an IOC-recognized event and they named it the International Winter Sports Week. It was held in Chamonix, France. From there, the committee held a separate Winter Olympics from there as they hosted it in St. Moritz, Switzerland. That was the second Winter Olympics. The tradition continued from there to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics as of now.

<h3>What do the Olympic Rings represent?</h3>
One of the most incredible representations of the Olympics image is those beautifully engineered rings. There are three rings on the top followed by two rings infused from the bottom. Blue, black, yellow, red, and green are the five colors of the rings. They represent the five continents that are united by Olympism. Pierre de Coubertin <a href="https://olympics.com/ioc/faq/olympic-symbol-and-identity/what-is-the-meaning-of-the-olympic-rings" target="_blank" rel="noopener">created</a> the design that became an iconic image for all Olympic Games back in 2013.
<h3>Is Winter Olympics 2022 happening?</h3>
Amidst all the pandemic problems, the Winter Olympics 2022 will begin as per schedule. There are a total of 15 sporting competitions which will happen on different dates and venues. The opening ceremony happens on February 4th while the closing ceremony is <a href="https://olympics.com/beijing-2022/olympic-games/en/results/all-sports/olympic-schedule.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">scheduled</a> for 20th February.

<h3>Safety Guidelines at Beijing Winter Olympics 2022</h3>
With the Covid-19 pandemic still existing in 2022, there would be safety guidelines similar to the Tokyo Olympics 2020. With different athletes coming from various countries, the international testing standards are safely done under the <a href="https://olympics.com/ioc/news/covid-19-testing-at-beijing-2022-international-standard-with-safety-as-highest-priority" target="_blank" rel="noopener">guidelines</a> of the World Health Organization (WHO) guidance. Chair of the Beijing 2022 Medical Expert Panel, Dr. Brian McCloskey spoke about the guidelines in a recent interview. The PCR testing is the standard that athletes would need to follow to ensure a safe and sound Winter Olympics in China. Departure tests would need to happen between 72 and 96 hours before departure. Oropharyngeal and Nasopharyngeal are the two tests done to minimize the risk of community spreading.
<h3>Where are the Winter Olympics 2022 held?</h3>
Significantly, there are three <a href="https://olympics.nbcsports.com/2022/01/27/everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-2022-winter-olympics/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">zones</a> that will be the venues for the Olympic Games. Beijing, Yanqing, and Zhangjiakou are the three venues for the Winter Olympics. Beijing is the city where snowboard big air and freestyle skiing big air, men?s and women?s will be held. Yanqing is a venue that is 75 kilometers away from Beijing Alpine Skiing and Bobsled events. The Olympic Athletes' Village is set in Yanqing. The last location is Zhangjiakou will host ski and snowboarding competitions that include freestyle, cross-country, ski jumping, Nordic combined, and biathlon.
<h3>Total countries participating at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics</h3>
While Summer Olympics is home to almost 200 or more countries, it is comparatively lower in terms of countries <a href="https://www.whereig.com/olympics/beijing-2022-winter-olympics-participating-countries.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">appearing</a> for the Winter Olympic Games. There are 91 countries that will take part in Beijing. These countries are under the International Olympic Committee. Around 2900 athletes are expected to attend the event.

<h3>Who boycotts the Winter Olympics?</h3>
With different controversies arising from China, some of the nations are turning to diplomatic <a href="https://www.gmfus.org/news/2022-winter-olympics-calls-boycotts-and-role-sports-china#:~:text=As%20the%202022%20Olympics%20near,allow%20their%20athletes%20to%20compete." target="_blank" rel="noopener">boycotting</a>. Several countries like the United States, Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, Canada, and Lithuania, have announced a diplomatic boycott of the competition. The NHL barred its players to not attending the Winter Olympics as it is one example of players not being allowed to appear.

<h3 class="jsx-8c85ea4b4bcf4dfc">Chloe Kim 2023: Net Worth, Salary, and Endorsements</h3>
The sensational Chloe Kim is one of the best snowboarders in the world. She won the half-pipe competition at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics; becoming the youngest woman at 17, to achieve this feat. Moreover, she is a six-time X Games gold medalist while winning two gold medals at the Winter Youth Olympics. Significantly, she became the youngest woman to win the medal. Likewise, she became the first woman to hold all the four major titles in the world at the same time- World, Olympic, Youth Olympic, and X Games champion. Thus, she entered TIME magazine's most influential people of 2018.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-869276 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Chloe-Kim-3.jpg" alt="chloe kim" width="1920" height="1440" />
<h3>Early Life of Chloe Kim</h3>
The 21-year-old snowboarding champion was born on April 23rd, 2000. Her parents migrated to America from South Korea when she was young and brought up here in Long Beach, California, USA. Noticing her talent at a very young age, Chloe's father quit his job, taking her to the mountains to practice. Being the youngest half-pipe champion in the world, Kim started snowboarding at the age of four. Everyone saw her talent as she started taking part in various competitions at a tender age.

Kim later joined the US snowboarding team in 2013, thus, starting her career in extreme sports. Apart from snowboarding, her passion for music is evident. Trying to learn the acoustic guitar is one of her traits right now.
<h3>Chloe Kim Career</h3>
The first breakthrough of her career came back in 2014. After qualifying for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Kim was not allowed to participate due to being young as there was an age limit to compete at the Winter Olympics. Soon after, she came back determined to grab the silver medal at the 2014 Winter X Games. Determined to make amends, she won her first gold medal at the 2015 X Games and became the youngest gold medal winner in the history of the games.

Although that record is broken by Kelly Sildaru, Kim's performances during that Games made everyone realize her potential. Plaudits came in thick and fast as she won two gold medals at the 2016 X Games. Performing two 1080 spins in the half-pipe, she became the first woman to attempt that trick. Getting a near-perfect 100 score, she became the second person to achieve that feat after the legendary Shaun White.

<img class="aligncenter wp-image-893716 size-full" src="https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/shaunwhitechloekim.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="576" />

After all the success achieved in the X Games, the Winter Youth Olympics became a challenge that motivated her to do well. From the get-go, Kim was a woman on a mission. By bearing the American flag at the Winter Youth Olympics, Kim won a gold medal for snowboarding; in addition, to becoming the first American woman to achieve that place.

The big leagues came calling as she won the gold medal at the 2018 Winter Olympics gold medal in Pyeongchang, South Korea. That cemented her legacy as one of the greatest snowboarders in the sport's history. Hence, accolades started coming thick and fast for the wonder kid. The first score she put at the event was 93.75. That itself was enough to get her the medal. With the determination to put on a show for the audience, Kim broke all hell loose in the final round.
