    Zoi Sadowski-Synnott has a gold medal to go with her concussion

    Zoi Sadowski-Synnott has a gold medal to go with her concussion


    The 17-year-old has won the snowboard slopestyle at the world championships in Utah - the first time a New Zealander has completed the feat on a board or skis.

    The result comes after the final was cancelled due to poor weather, with the top qualifier automatically winning.

    But Sadowski-Synnott wasn't going to compete in the final, after taking a head-knock in qualifying.
