This week, The Front Page is showcasing several high-profile New Zealanders who stood out in their field in 2022.

Aotearoa saw multiple sporting highlights in 2022, from success at the Commonwealth Games to the Black Ferns' World Cup victory.

But back in February, history was made when our country won its first-ever gold medals at the Winter Olympics.  

Zoi Sadowski-Synnott claimed gold first in the women’s slopestyle, followed later by Nico Porteous in the halfpipe. The pair were both only 16 when they won their first medals in 2018, and their 2022 victories further cemented their historic status as our youngest-ever gold medallists.

Today, Damien talks to The Front Page's Sports Standouts about their path to gold and glory.
