Some of figure skating's most notable performers will return to the ice for an Olympic performance unlike anything seen so far in the Games.

Amber Glenn, Ilia Malinin, Maxim Naumov and Alysia Liu lead the Americans as they seek Olympic glory on ice at the Milan Cortina Games.

During the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, a French figure skating judge was caught vote-swapping in the pairs competition, and two years later, the International Skating Union changed its 6.0 judging system.

Alysa Liu brought down the house with her free skating, her electric performance rocketing her to winning gold at the 2026 Winter Olympics.

Olympic figure skater Alysa Liu has earned her stripes.

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.

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
