Shaun White publicly declared that the 2022 Winter Olympic Games in Beijing will be his last. “I haven’t really said this too much, so it’s going to feel weird coming out of my mouth — but this is, I think, my last run,” the pro snowboarder told NBC’s Craig Melvin in an interview filmed earlier this week.
