Ilia is good, but his skate was not the "star" of the show for the Men's Free in the team competition. That designation goes to Matteo Rizzo of Italy and Shun Sato of Japan. Both of their performances were dazzling and Olympic caliber.
OMG, here’s some joy. The Polish figure skating team’s mascot is a STUFFED PIEROGI! #Olympics 😍🥟
Goosebumps here at the arena.
A mesmerizing performance by Matteo Rizzo who will help lead the Italians to an historic bronze medal in the figure skating team event.
Italy had never won a medal in this event. Until now. On home ice. What a moment.

I've seen a lot of people watching the figure skating at the Olympics and a lot of praise for the French ice dancers with the cool Vogue programme. I thought it was important to add some (pretty unpleasant) context to their Olympic narrative.

It took me literally seconds to look up the yacht and see that Rowling didn't buy it until 2023 (reminder: Epstein died in 2019).
