Olympians to watch Monday

- — The Denver Post

Chloe Kim makes her Olympic debut at age 17 in women’s snowboard halfpipe. The finals start at 6 p.m. MST.

Four years ago, Kim qualified for the Sochi Games in Russia but was under the age requiremen­t. Kim has some talented teammates this year — Maddie Mastro and three-time Olympic medalist Kelly Clark.

NBC announced figures Sunday saying that its prime-time coverage of the Games on Saturday posted a “total audience delivery” of 24.2 million viewers, topping the 23.5 million from the first Saturday at the Rio de Janeiro Summer Games in 2016. Viewership peaked during the men’s slopestyle finals when Silverthor­ne teenager Red Gerard put on a spectacula­r final run to win the gold medal.
