MEET THE OLYMPIAN

Today’s segment features two young figure skaters who are America’s top gold medal hopes at the Winter Olympics.

One is dubbed the ‘Quad God’ thanks to the quadruple Axel that he is the only skater to have landed yet. Something tells us, he is definitely looking for the 335.30 world record that belongs to America’s Nathan Chen. While the other is probably looking for redemption after her 6th finish at the Beijing Olympics.
