The women's halfpipe competition in freestyle skiing at the 2022 Winter Olympics was held on 17 February (qualification) and 18 February (final), at the Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou.[1] Eileen Gu of China won the event. The defending champion, Cassie Sharpe of Canada, returned and won silver. Rachael Karker of Canada won bronze, her first Olympic medal.
The 2018 silver medalist, Marie Martinod, retired from competitions, and the bronze medalist, Brita Sigourney, returned and placed tenth. At the 2021–22 FIS Freestyle Ski World Cup, there were four events held before the Olympics, all won by Eileen Gu. Gu was therefore the first in the ranking, followed by Hanna Faulhaber and Karker. Gu was also the 2021 X-Games winner in super-pipe, as well as the 2021 world champion.
