Beijing (CNN)Eileen Gu fans temporarily crashed China's leading social media platform （主要社交平台）on Tuesday, as tens of millions rushed online to celebrate the teenage freeski sensation winning her first gold medal of the Beijing Winter Olympics.

She narrowly beat out France's Tess Ledeux, who took silver with a score of 187.50. Switzerland's Mathilde Gremaud won the bronze.

Fans filled the stands to cheer for Gu, who was born and raised in California but decided in 2019 to compete for China. Known as the "snow princess" among her Chinese fans, Gu -- already a reigning world champion（卫冕冠军） -- has become the unofficial face of China's Olympic ambitions, and saw her popularity skyrocket（人气暴涨） in the lead-up（先导） to the Games.
