Australia has a new golden girl. 

Jakara Anthony, 23, won Australia’s first gold medal in the women’s moguls at the Beijing Winter Olympics.

She’s only the sixth Australian to win a gold medal in the Winter Olympics, and the first in 12 years.

Her effort, combined with Tess Coady’s snowboarding bronze medal, made Sunday Australia’s best Winter Olympics day of all time.
