USA Olympic figure skating results: Updated scores, winners for 2026 team, singles and pairs events
Amber Glenn, Ilia Malinin, Maxim Naumov and Alysia Liu lead the Americans as they seek Olympic glory on ice at the Milan Cortina Games.
For more than seven decades, women from the United States have shaped Olympic figure skating. Each champion arrived in a different era. Each one faced a different challenge. Some battled illness. Others carried the weight of tragedy or tough rivalry.
Alysa Liu’s comeback is golden. Less than two years after coming out of retirement, Liu captured America’s first medal in women’s figure skating in 20 years — and it is colored gold for the first time since 2002.
Liu won gold with a rousing routine to "MacArthur Park" by Donna Summer. Kaori Sakamoto and Ami Nakai, both of Japan, won silver and bronze.
She’s the fourth Bay Area skater to win individual gold at the Winter Olympics, and the seventh medalist from the region overall
