Figure Skating in the Winter Olympics

 



Last night Nathan Chen gold medal performance in Beijing inspired me to search for the history of Figure Skating. I enjoyed very much Chen's performance ( see video), but I was more moved by Jason Brown emotional free skate ( 6th place finish) to the music of Schindler's List.    https://www.nbcchicago.com/news/sports/beijing-winter-olympics/watch-nathan-chens-gold-medal-winning-free-skate/2754676/
