Figure Skating at the Winter Olympic Games Milano Cortina 2026

[Book 86]

What a prelude to the individual competitions. For both the Japanese and American skaters that will be the motivation they will use to try to win. For someone like Ilia who clearly felt the weight of the moment he doesn’t have to worry any more about being an Olympic champion anymore.

 

On the other hand, these Japanese skaters with a hunger to win could be scary.

Sadly, we failed the Japanese team I fear

Gogolev knocking out France helped US too.  Got C&B a sure 10, didn’t need to worry about the French in the Free Dance.

Judo was considered to be at the WOG I´ve heard, just like Track cycling, but there GEO have no big medal chances I imagine 

Georgia is good in men's judo.

This team competition is very intense. The United States and Japan field their elite players in almost every match.

Oh Ilia I think still on preassure. He want to be a winner in individual with massive score and prkbably historic routine with score from the jumps.

Deanna being injured also probably cost Japan gold / allowed the US to win gold.

 

Really when it’s that close it comes down to the tiniest thing.

I really hope Deanna makes it back for the Pairs.

Agree it is those little things.

I hope too. Not optimistic at all for their medal chances but it would suck for Deanna and Max to make it this far and not get to compete.

That's the goal, although it should be noted that because of the schedule, everyone in Italy expected today to be the biggest day of the Olympics in terms of total medals. We had to win at least 4-5 in order to be on par for 20 by the end of the Games.

 

Tomorrow, for instance, we will only have 1 (or half, more accurately) chance in alpine skiing.

And it was perfectly achieved, well done
