On the morning of February 8, in the final of the freestyle ski women's big jump at the Beijing Winter Olympics, 18-year-old Chinese player Gu Ailing won the championship with a score of 188.25 points, and the Chinese delegation won the third gold! Runner-up was 20-year-old French girl Tes-Ludd (187.50 points) and third place was Swiss Greymold (182.50 points).
Gu Ailing
After winning this gold medal, Gu Airing cried with joy and was so excited that he fell to his knees! Not far away, 20-year-old French girl Tess sat on the snow, hiding her face and crying...
Olympic silver medal, which is a good result, but Tess is extremely sad. The Swiss star Greymode, who won the bronze medal, kept comforting Tess. Seeing Taisi sitting on the ground and crying bitterly, Gu Ailing also walked over to comfort the 20-year-old French girl.

Gu Ailing patted Taisi's back and comforted the sad Taisi with words. The 20-year-old Taisi was still crying uncontrollably, and Gu Ailing kept stroking Thesi's back to comfort his heartbroken opponent...
Such a picture made audiences around the world feel moved: 22-year-old Gray Mod and 18-year-old Gu Ailing comforted the 20-year-old Theis, which is the embodiment of the Olympic spirit.
Why is Thes so sad? Lucas, deputy editor of the British "Athletic Newspaper", revealed the reason on social platforms: she missed her father who died.
Tess and Father
At the end of January last year, Tess's father died suddenly. It was a heavy blow to Theiss – his father was a trainer in ice and snow sports and a staunch supporter of Theiss, guiding Theiss along the way.
To this day, Theth has not stepped out of the shadow of his father's death. "My heart felt a sharp pain and I needed time to heal the wounds. I want to thank my father for helping me, he let me grow, gave me faith, taught me not to give up..." After last year's season, Tess mourned his father.
He started skateboarding at the age of 2, joined a local club at the age of 9, and became a world champion at the age of 15 – Tess grew up very quickly. At the 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, Theis was the youngest athlete on the French team, but unfortunately failed to win a medal. At the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Theiss certainly hopes to dedicate a gold medal to Heaven's father. Failing to win the gold medal, Tess has regrets and more misses. So you can understand why Theth is out of control and crying.
