Does America have a chance to medal in ladies Ice Figure Skating at the upcoming OLYMPICS? The Olympic games will be held in Korea in Feb. 2018. Host city: Pyeongchang, South Korea
Dates: Feb 9, 2018 – Feb 25, 2018. https://www.google.com/search?q=winter+olympics&ie=&oe=
Let's review- -- First of all the world champion from Russia is the two time champion in Russia - here: Evgenia Armanovna Medvedeva (Russian: Евгения Армановна Медведева; born 19 November 1999) is a Russian figure skater. She is a two-time World champion (2016, 2017), a two-time European champion (2016, 2017), a two-time Grand Prix Final champion (2015, 2016), and a two-time Russian national champion (2016, 2017). Earlier in her career, she won the 2015 World Junior Championships, the 2014 Junior Grand Prix Final, and the 2015 Russian Junior Championships.[9]
Evgenia scored the highest score ever recorded at the world championships here's the video.
Second place at worlds was another Russian skater. The winner of the Junior Worlds was a Russian. And as far as I'm concerned there is another Russian skater that may be able to win gold at the Olympics and that would be Radionova. She came in second in the European championships.
The best skate of her career and a mistake by Medvedeva and she could upset the champion. Chen might upset one of the top skaters or Bell could play a spoiler role at the Olympics. Wagner is still in great form also for the Americans. Overall the Americans have a chance to medal and possibly pull off an upset at the Olympics in Korea. It would be the greatest upset in Olympic Ice Skating history. Never count out Wagner.
But if I placed money on an upset in Korea I would have to think Bell might just upset one of the Russian Skaters. Anything is possible.
