Shaun White, who won three snowboarding gold medals for the U.S. in three Olympics, told the Associated Press he’s decided against trying to compete in the Tokyo Olympics this summer in skateboarding.

 

Although White has competed very successfully in skateboarding, he realized the work he'd have to do to compete in the Olympics would hurt his chances of trying for a fourth Olympic snowboarding gold in Beijing in 2022.
