Couldn't agree more. The Olympics is such a strange affair. On the one hand it is the greatest display of globalism, on the other, the greatest display of nationalism. It's like the twin headed monster. Many of these athletes are now professional athletes who compete for prize money and sponsorship, it's become their bread and butter, so they are basically competing for themselves anyway. This whole national pride thing is becoming meaningless and just injects far too much politics into sports. It's annoying. We should just celebrate sports for sports. Admire *all* athletes who are best at what they do, regardless of where they're from.

If she switches back to represent the US in the next Olympics she might win back some support here but she will draw backlash in China. If she continues to represent China she might find herself increasingly unwelcome in the US. This decision put her in a no-win situation. People do stupid things at 15, my blame lies squarely with her mom for not helping her think things through. In fact, it might even be her decision rather than Eileen's.

it is a good idea. but olympics is toy project of the rich western nations, i doubt they will stop it.

Gu said to promote winter sports in China. Winter sports have not been popular in China, FYI.

It is hard to imagine that the United States would ask such a question! Isn't America the largest immigrant country in the world?

I think it is important to note that Eileen Gu announced this decision 3 years ago at age 15. A lot could've happened in the intervening years, she could've gotten injured, lost interest etc. She probably didn't even know she'd become so dominant 3 years later, including growing 3" taller at age 16/17 which enabled her to do harder tricks. It wouldn't surprise me if she/her mom made this decision thinking it'd be the easier route for her to get to the Olympics, since each country can only send 3 skiers and the US already had several stars including Maggie Voisin while China had no one.

I just think its interesting they are raised here and train here yet go back to China to compete. I wonder if these athletes would be at the same level they're at if they lived and trained over in China 🤔.

Something Americans do not understand. America is a country of immigrants, ask any immigrants if they love their mother country, i can assure you the majority will say yes. Most ppl only go to America for the money but their heart stay with their motherland. Let it be Mexicans, Philippines, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian ANY COUNTRY.

So you will eat train practice do everything for USA n in USA ...then for the game u just suddenly remember that u are a Chinese damn this is the best example of Karma...... USA you really have a big heart.... 👍🏻
