American freestyle skier Gus Kenworthy insists that he has ‘less to compartmentalise’ and that his gay advocacy won’t distract him, as he prepares to compete in his second Winter Olympics. Kenworthy was the silver medallist in USA’s slopestyle clean sweep at the Sochi Games in 2014, and will become one of the first openly gay male athletes competing in Pyeongchang, having come out in 2015.
