Eileen Gu’s two new silver medals give her boasting rights as the most decorated female freestyle ski Olympian ever — and the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue took to social media to congratulate the star athlete, who appeared in the iconic magazine last year.
“Just a reminder: @eileengu is the most decorated female freestyle skier in Olympic history,” SI Swim captioned its Thursday, February 19 throwback post on Instagram. The stunning photo showed the skier in a gorgeous white one-piece with sheer paneling.
“And one of the hottest! 😍🔥🤍💛,” commented one fan.
“As well as the hottest 🔥🔥,” repeated another.
“And the SEXIEST 🔥,” added a third.
“And she’s a baddie!! ❤️🔥” commented a fourth.
“A flawless aesthetic 🤍,” raved a fifth.
Gu, 22, was raised in California but competes for China, her mother’s home country. She came into the 2026 Winter Games with two gold and one silver from Beijing, before taking home silver in both big air and slopestyle — making Olympic history as the most decorated female freestyle skier ever. And she still has one event left: Saturday’s women’s halfpipe.

The confident athlete had a viral moment after earning her record-breaking fifth medal, when she clapped back at a reporter who asked her if she thought of her silver medals as “two golds lost.”
“AMAZING Response,” approved one fan in the SI Swim comments. “She is incredible! 😍”
