TOKYO (AP) — Australia’s Keegan Palmer has won the last skateboarding gold of the Tokyo Games.
He won in men’s park, breaking what had been Japanese domination in all three previous events.
The silver went to Pedro Barros of Brazil. Cory Juneau took bronze, the second skateboarding medal for the United States.
The first for the U.S., also a bronze, was won by Jagger Eaton in men’s street. Palmer, who is 18 and was born in the United States, was untouchable with two runs of tricks and stunts in the eight-man final.
His gold was the first medal in skateboarding for Australia. All the golds in the other three events went to Japanese skaters.
