Gus Kenworthy says he has reignited his love for skiing and will aim to reach his fourth consecutive Winter Olympics at Milano Cortina 2026.
The news arrives more than three years after the last Games in Beijing, where Kenworthy finished eighth in the halfpipe final. He said beforehand that it would be his last competition.
However, the 33-year-old has now revealed how he informed his management team two months ago that he was returning to training for the first time since 2022, and that his head coach on the Great Britain team had encouraged him to chase another Games.
“It’s this Olympics or nothing. I’m never going to have this opportunity again,” he told.
Gus Kenworthy came out in 2015, and its memorable kiss then boyfriend Matthew Wilkas, before qualifying at Winter Olympics in Pyeongyang' 2018, was a historic televised smooch that went viral on social media.
