What's the story?Remond "Red Boy" Gerard has won a gold medal in the SlopeStyle snowboarding event at the PyeongChang Winter Olympics 2018 and his win has become a talking point of many Liverpool fans since he shares his last name with the Liverpool legend, Steven Gerrard. Also, 'Red' is the name given to a Liverpool fan owing to the traditional red home jersey used by the club.Been rooting for Red Gerrard since yesterday because of his ridiculous and almost Scouse name.— Martin Darko (@MartinDarko) February 11, 2018In case you didn't knowWith his gold, Redmond became the first person born in the 21st century to win a medal at the Winter Olympics. He also became the first American gold medallist at the 2018 Winter Olympics and the youngest American to win a medal in a snowboarding event in PyeongChang. His run in the Olympic qualifications was just 0.72 seconds short of the perfect score and this shows that he was all set to register his first gold in the competition.If at first you don't succeed, try again! #NeverGiveUp @RedmondGerard #USA #Gold #Snowboard #PyeongChang2018 @TeamUSA pic.twitter.com/vd9dMhwcBb— Olympics (@Olympics) February 11, 2018Congratulations to 17-year-old snowboarder Red Gerrard, the first American to medal at the 2018 Winter Olympics! 🥇🇺🇸 🏂 #TeamUSA pic.twitter.com/ZjCrpLdb3u— American History (@TodayInAmHist) February 11, 2018The heart of the matterRedmond's win at the Winter Olympics came as a moment of joy and surprise for Liverpool fans all over the world, who associate themselves very closely to the former captain Steven Gerard.

YNWA.— Paul Pabst (@PaulPabst) February 11, 2018What's next?Gerard will be taking part in the Big Air event of snowboarding at the Winter Olympics 10 days from now and will be preparing heavily in order to increase his gold medal tally as he looks to be in supreme form right now. Liverpool on the other hand, face Southampton in the English Premier League tonight and a win would bring them up to the third spot in the league table.Author's takeThe gold medal by Redmond must be encouraging for the young lad as he managed to continue his country's streak at the Winter Olympic games in this event and will be giving his best to double his tally for this edition.
