After Eileen Gu secured her spot in the Winter Olympics big air final Saturday, she said she was disappointed that Games organizers wouldn’t make accommodations to allow her the same amount of training as the rest of the skiers in her third and final event, the halfpipe. Gu, who won silver in slopestyle earlier in the week, is the only female freeskier signed up for all three disciplines — slopestyle, halfpipe and big air. The big air final Monday overlaps with the first of three, three-hour halfpipe training sessions for that event scheduled later next week.
