Anderson Clinches Second TTR World Snowboard Tour Title

Stratton Mountain, VT – American snowboarder Jamie Anderson made history on Wednesday by clinching her second Swatch TTR World Tour Champion title at the 6Star Burton U.S. Open at Stratton Mountain ski resort in vermont. She is the first woman to ever win two TTR World Tour titles.nAnderson qualified first in Wednesday’s slopestyle semi-finals and will move on to the slopestyle finals as a favorite to win on Friday. She was in contention for the TTR Tour title with fellow American, Kelly Clark, who has dominated every halfpipe competition she entered this season, but Clark did not compete in slopestyle Wednesday and no longer has the opportunity to take the World No. 1 position from Anderson.

Anderson will be awarded the TTR World Tour Champion trophy and $50,000 at the close of the Burton U.S. Open on Saturday following halfpipe finals. Clark still has the opportunity to finish in the TTR Top 3 if she places well in Saturday’s halfpipe finals, in which case, she will be awarded with a sizable portion of the $200,000 TTR prize purse.
