Figure Skating at the 2026 Winter Olympics: Key Moments and Future Impact The 2026 Winter Olympics in Milano Cortina was filled with drama, surprises, and a new level of pressure in figure skating. With high stakes in every discipline, the event showed a clear shift in how skaters approach their performances. US skater Ilia Malinin, known as the 'Quad God,' entered the Games with high expectations, but his struggles with his signature quadruple axel left him off the podium. Meanwhile, US pair Madison Chock and Evan Bates, despite being favorites, ended up with a silver medal, overshadowed by the controversial French team, Guillaume Cizeron and Laurence Fournier Beaudry, who took gold in the ice dance competition. Retired figure skater Adam Rippon, who provided commentary throughout the event, discussed the evolving dynamics in the sport, the pressure skaters face, and how judging has shifted in recent years, making it harder for athletes to achieve perfect performances. He also shared his thoughts on the increasing political awareness of athletes, especially in relation to LGBTQ+ rights and other political issues. Rippon emphasized the importance of 'magical moments' in skating, despite the pressures and the imperfect judging system, and how the Olympic stage remains a critical moment in an athlete’s career.
