Snowboarder Jamie Anderson has successfully defended her golden status.
The 27-year-old grabbed gold for the second time in the women’s snowboard slopestyle at Phoenix Snow Part in South Korea Monday morning (Sunday night stateside). Anderson also took home gold in the 2014 competition in Sochi — its Olympic debut — which means Anderson is currently the first and only woman to earn gold in the event at the Games.
Blustery conditions caused a delayed start to the event and handicapped the majority of the competitors, according to a release from the U.S. Olympic Committe, which also noted that “Anderson successfully navigated...

Drake hosted the 2014 Espy Awards Wednesday night in Los Angeles, where he took the opportunity to roast LeBron James and Johnny Manziel – and get a dig in on fellow rapper Macklemore.
