Lindsey Jacobellis’ triumph in the women’s snowboard cross at Beijing 2022 is “incredible”, according to Eurosport expert Billy Morgan, who claimed the American had a “bad rep for a long time” after her showboating fail at Turin 2006. The 36-year-old defied the odds to end her wait for an elusive Olympic gold medal – 16 years after she blew a huge lead when crashing after a needless flair trick in the final.
