Nathan Chen is the 2021 World Champion, Yuzuru Hanyu Takes Bronze | THAT FIGURE SKATING SHOW 

Thank you.

I‘ve never doubted him also. I knew he would win. Nathan is unbeatable!!!1

Totally agreed with u. Nathan is the best!

Yeah I can only see him not get gold in Beijing if he somehow falls enough like in the 2018 Olympics or if Hanyu lands a quad axel.

We are talking about a very different Nathan Chen. And prior to him falling during his short program the last he did fell in a competition was at the Olympics. The same cannot be said about Hanyu. And to make matters worse for him he’s hurt himself many times over attempting to keep up with the quads. So for him to say that he’s going to try a quad axel, is basically him trying to commit career ending suicide. But good luck to him.

@@CarlosCastro_ yeah Hanyu even said his big goal was to get two gold medals in the Olympics which he has already achieved, I think Hanyu is aware he is getting older which is why he's so focused on the quad axel, because if he accomplishes it even just once even at the expense of his career he'd go out big making history. I think Hanyu knows he likely won't be able to beat a clean Nathan performance so while he might still compete for his fans I think he's looking to go out on a record. Young skaters wouldn't risk the quad axel but since Yuzu has already enjoyed longevity in his historic career I think he's at the point where he's willing to risk it. Even seeing him land poorly on a quad axel would still be great to see, though I agree that this upcoming era is Nathan's, since such a demanding sport favors the young and Nathan is only getting better. I do love seeing both these guys share the ice because they have an actual challenge to skate against which will encourage more daring and competitive routines. Hanyu is a crown jewel of the sport so no matter what he does these days he'll still be in the history books, which he is aware of. I honestly think he's just staying for the fans as well as finding a point in his career to end on a high point hence the quad axel.

Hanyu needs to be realistic, he has difficulty landing the quads that he does right now, so to say that he wants to land a quad axel is reaching. Specially since he’s hurt himself trying to master the jumps that he does now. It definitely be interesting to see how that works out for him. But I hope that Nathan continues to do what he’s doing because that Olympic gold medal right now is his to lose.

@@radioactive_sunflowerz2450...a 4A is only worth 12.5 pts. Landing one will put Yuzuru in the history books as the first guy to do one, but it won't necessarily get him a gold. Yuzuru knows that too because it seems he has pretty much given up on the idea of defeating Nathan. Landing a 4A would actually be a far more achievable goal for him at this point. I agree Nathan himself will determine if he is Olympic Champion or not in Beijing. He has been so consistent in the most important competitions through the years and his artistry has improved to the point where if he just skates his high degree difficulty programs as close to perfection as possible, he pretty much becomes untouchable. He's just too good.

Our jaws were on the ground.

@@CBCSports Why do you hate Hanyu?

@@jennifer5512 because hanyu is not ✨american✨

@@user-rd7ep3rg7qYou know, removing the blinkers is quite nice sometimes.

Yuma is not American either and they only have praises for his two programs. I see nothing personal, they are commenting performance at this event.

Fanaticism can make the smart ones become dumb

It was pathetic. Nevermind that Nathan has surpassed Yuzuru in the free program for 30+ points. This time it was 40+. And for all of Yuzuru’s intricacies that make his choreography unique, I am certainly NOT entertained out my socks the way this commentator was - ecstatic and screaming in the short program. It’s like they crave the most literal and cliché style possible because for them that’s “artistry”. I wouldn’t be surprised if they fell over themselves enthralled by the “artistry” of Medvedeva’s exaggerated facial expression of agony and were left in tears by it.

@@QQ-wl6yt Yuzuru is more subtle and has more details in his programs but that doesn't mean Nathan is not artistic at all. Maybe his interpretation was literal in SP but it was quite ok (although I'm not a fan of this short). Nathan has just different style, more rough, energetic and modern, Yuzuru more delicate, soft and elegant.

@@QQ-wl6yt And btw Nathan definitely deserved this advantage of points because Yuzuru made too many mistakes. There's no point of you implying it was unfair.

@@alwa4735 you make it sound like a toilet paper commercial,

@Sy Samb Hahaha ... so true :)

Yes I'm a fanyu but I agree that yuzuru didn't skate his best. It's the truth. I agreed on Nathan's win.

But...most Canadian and USA-ans didn't happy when S/K won the title. They think CAN have been robbeb by ISU and favour on SFR side.

Oh I see, you like Trusova, that's why you don't like real ice skating.

@@amaiurjarauta969 I like real skating, but I admit and respect this wonderful girl for making history. Not every man is ready to do 5 quads in the program (besides Nathan, of course). She's so brave and has amazing fight spirit 😊

@@wilhelmusruperno3068 LMAO. Canadians were ridiculously overscored. The only ones who were robbed from bronze are Stepanova/Bukin. Their dance was better than both Americans and Canadians. Also, performance of Hubbell/Donohue was not completely clean, so it's very interesting why they took a silver at all. For my opinion Chock/Bates really deserved a silver, their performance was awesome. Nah, someone just doesn't want to admit that Russians are the best at this sport 😉😏

Своих ботов уже не знаете куда впихнуть. Сначала Загитовой с Медведевой их приписывали. Теперь всем подряд. Сразу видны русские своей речью)) Позорите Россию только своей манерой говорить. Самые токсичные фанаты в Фигурном катании

Here in the US Figure skating world we are disappointed the low score Yuzuru got. He deserves to be the first!

@@thomaspreusse6077 Nathan definitely deserved the gold in 2021 worlds. Please do not misrepresent the US figure skating community 😂

@@thomaspreusse6077 actually I think not too, this time it's not his best performance 😭, but still the scored little irritated my eyes ahahah 😒

1000% right!

Already gone & forgotten, most dominant my foot, he was most overscored jumper in the history of figure skating and now it's Ilia's turn. usfeds pay lots of money to I$U and J$F to keep their pets on the top of the podium, and second place for J$F pets. And Yuzuru Hanyu is the most dominant figure skater of all time, and continuously making history ! as the most successful Pro athlete !

Apparently, your concept of “ art “ is very different,there’s not much artistic aspect you can find from this free skate of Yuzulu.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

I agree, I prefer Yuzuru's performance with mistakes, over others ''clean'' but empty robotic jumps and crossovers...

True.

No wonder only his photo exhibitions are held at GUCCI Ginza gallery, only his portraits are featured in museums of fine arts, and only his performances are acknowledged and admired in ballet classes, and masters thesis in multiple international universities, including YALE.

Noted!

Let's see in the Olympics 🤔

Yes of course it will be so hard for him to win because he is not from RUS & US, judges won't give him every GOE & PCS he rightfully deserve. Nathan is always overscored, he just needs to land his jumps and the candies will follow. Let's see if judged fairly without inflation and bias can he win over Hanyu. But we will never see that because ISU wants him gone. Which is fine with me tbh, because Hanyu deserve better. That org can rot in hell for killing this sport, their best skater and moneymaker.

@@feather-san4224 very well said pal.

Feather-san the ISU is not fair but the reality is Yuzu is past his prime. He’s had a great career but 26 is old.

Feather-san every world championship he won over Yuzu he won because he skated cleanly and Yuzu did not. The ISU isn’t making Yuzu stumble. Nathan’s artistry this time was great and his overall presentation was better than Yuzu who was sloppy and tired.

That reaction melted our cold, black hearts over here.

HE REALLY IS 🥰

I am from the same city as Kolyada, but I was impressed by the performance of Chen. And at that seconds for me it was not a matter from what country the sportsmen, I was just enjoying what I was looking at. Thanks to Chen

I'm shocked at how much I loved Kolyada's FS, as I'm usually a detractor (LOL!). Even with the fall, this Nureyev program is sooooooooooo much nicer to watch than the Elvis-type nonsense he tried to do in past seasons.

@@e2theeyepie Incredibly brilliant Mikhail ❤ ,but Elvis-type was great too 😉

We've been watching that clip on repeat.

@@CBCSports It’s 50/50 with Stephan’s slap! 🤣

Yeah...what he does doesn't shock(or really even amazes) me anymore...and, as a Nathan fan, that's the highest compliment I can give him. Doing out-of-this-world stuff, things that most normal human beings can't imagine being able to do, is just perfectly normal for him. Winning another gold medal, another World title, is sort of just another ordinary day in the life of Nathan Chen, lol... ^^

@@divinearia1601 I became a fan of figure skating last year and I will never regret. This sport is so fascinating and artistic! I don't understand why everyone isn't a fan of figure skating. Nathan Chen is just revolutionary! He is progressing every year and I think he will do something amazing in the future

​@@nazikanazika4510...figure skating can be very fascinating, yes. I wish it was more popular too, especially here in the US. I mean, we have the best skater in the world in Nathan Chen and most Americans are just like "meh, figure-skating, whatever." It's a big deal because I don't think the US has ever had such a dominant skater before in the history of the sports. As I watch other countries worship their skaters, I wish more here would show a little more support and appreciation for an athlete of this caliber.

Exactly, I love both Hanyu and Chen though Nathan is personally my favorite skater, but Yuzuru is a close second. I think having each other for competitors is great for them both so they can get even better as well as evolving the sport. Love their respect for each other as fellow pioneers and icons of figure skating, can't wait for the Olympics to see these guys share the ice again ❤️

Tell that to the idiots who are always crying about cheating judges and conspiracy theories. And in order for them to validate the idea that the judges cheated, they will attack the athlete himself. That's their way of discrediting all the hard work and talent of the one who has been beating their idol year after year. It's a sore loser mentality, and it's disgusting behavior.

Lots of respect to Yuzuru Hanyu... but no respect to Doug Williams type American judge who actually found gui[]ty of biased judging multiple times... yet isu let him to judge. Shame on isu and all biased judges.

I feel like the biggest idiot for blindly trusting and defending isu judges, after isu vice president admitted "they had to stop Hanyu'' b/c he was winning too many titles by large margins, and breaking too many WR, and they didn't want him to continue, they wanted NEW STARS... that's why they ''pushed'' him to quit and retire... shame on isu for their dis gus ting behavior towards Yuzuru Hanyu.

Just accept that Yuzuru is skating for his love of the sport. He is not the best by far at this point. And he already got lucky in the 2018 Olympics (although that was the last season that the top spot was close enough to be competitive). To expect another gold would require something of a catastrophic outcome for Nathan.

Yuzuru came out on top every 4 years at the competitions that mattered the most, while Nathan consistently dominated at every competition in the last 4 seasons and was only defeated at the 2018 Olympics. Both are incredibly hard feats to achieve, they are both skating icons.

...what's with the emoji during your compliment for Nathan? So, what, a backhanded compliment then? Fanyus are so nice, aren't they? ^^

He said he created LMEY as a gift for his fans... thank you Yuzu for continuously creating beautiful gifts for us 💕

Thank you Yuzu for creating beautiful SOLD OUT SOLO ice stories, only for us (very lucky fans) and thank you for making it possible for international fans to watch your live performance with subtitles.

TANYA YOU'RE SO KIND. Thanks for watching!

As someone who went through school for years and got two degrees including a Master's, that would be a HUGE mistake on his part. It's actually the other way around, he can always return to academia in older age, but he can't return to figure skating as his body ages. I work with a bunch of statisticians and there are very few actual data scientists out there, it's not a competitive field if you're actually good at it and can find your niche. One of the smartest data scientists I know didn't get his career really started until after leaving the military in his late 20s and working a bunch of part time jobs afterward until he landed his first full time job in this field. Point is, the brain is an appreciating asset as you go into your 20s and 30s, your body is a depreciating asset. It's always a mistake for hugely talented people to waste their gift.

@@annemary9680 Yes I agree about the chance to pick up education much later. One can always get back to school when getting older. I also agree he can't return to figure skating as his body ages. When I said data science was "competitive" I mean by the level of intellectual efforts and brain work that does have to do with age. Data science is part of my things and it takes a lot of efforts to be competent in the field. As a certified actuary with Ph.D. and minor in engineering, I also understand how much challenge you may run into later if you're not highly motivated nor highly disciplined to work your ass off through your early career life. Starting young always has better chance to excel in your professional field because age and energy do matter to take up heavy workload and challenges. Taking medical practice for another example, an acquaintance of mine who worked as an emergency doctor at his early 30s once mentioned to me that there's a huge difference by age group in how well and how easily one doctor can survive his residency. He saw his older colleagues struggle much to get up on calls. Well, Nathan do not necessarily have to get into that stressful specialty. But it's almost the truth of universe that it's the best to start your lifetime career at young rather than old. It applies to sports, so does many other professional fields, specifically highly skilled professions like data scientists and physicians. At some point, he has to choose one, either pro figure skating or another professional. I believe he can excel in whatever he decides to do in the future. But he can't do both forever. That's my point. 🤣

More than due to focusing on studies he will take a pause from skating bcoz his body is detoriating, one can't imagine the pressure he puts on his body to keep 5 different quads ready and steady, nathan is smart and he knows this sport is for the very young only, so it better to leave on the top of your game and give chance to new talent. Plus after Olympics what would be his motivation ? He is not obsessive to be the next superstar or how many titles he can get nathan is lowkey and mellow but very realistic and rational.

@@mooony94 As an Asian parent, I won't push my child to go all out for a sport for a long time either. Jeremy Lin in NBA is an exception. But I don't think Jeremy has been doing great in last several seasons. I'd rather see them retire at peak and go for a more steady and sustainable profession that entails other skills than physical strength and relentless practice schedules, unless they really have passion surpassing anything else and have tactics to coach younger athletes as a profession. Going for medals in sports competitions is more like challenging yourself and fulfilling your dream. Other than that, all athletes should move on to next stage of life when due time comes. You can never be on the top of your game forever. GOAT doesn't exist. I don't think many fans of star athletes including Fanyu understand that.

@@censoredyoutube4902 exactly, everyone has a peak when they r at the prime of thier era but no one can defeat time, a new talent will always surpass. Nathan has mentioned again and again that he takes his academic very seriously I'm very glad that he is ready to move on to the next stage in his life after winning Olympic gold hopefully though I will miss him alot.

Ooooooookaaaay🥱🥱🥱 if you say so‼️🤣🤣🤣

Yees Yuzuru is the King of ice skate 💖

Yes he is.

I agree.

Yes, he is a legend 👑 more that a medal.

They have to in order to survive.

@@Gemini530 That's another way to say they actually don't have a life. Lol

Oh my, I absolutely agree. While I appreciate all Yuzu performances, I don't think these 2 programs are best suited for him, especially if he's competing with Nathan. Nathan's free program this year was really amazing.

It's wild how close your instincts are to reality. Just out of curiosity, I went back and restored all Hanyu's -GOE in his LP, gave him an average +3 GOE for those jumps, plus an additional 3 points in PCS, and he STILL would have lost to Nathan by over 8 points. Even with two perfect programs AND Nathan's mistake in the SP, Hanyu still could not have won. After losing to Nathan at 2019 Worlds, Hanyu was quoted in the press as saying he knew even two perfect programs there weren't going to beat Nathan. That's why I've said to people for years, that Hanyu's gold at the 2018 Olympics would never have happened if Nathan had only missed one jump in his SP. Nathan needs to make multiple mistakes in order for anyone else to have a chance at beating him, and that's what happened in the SP at the 2018 Olympics. Lucky for Hanyu because Nathan never had a case of nerves again. Nathan also won the LP at the 2018 Olympics by 18 technical points over Hanyu and nearly 9 points even after PCS was added. He went on to Worlds 2018 and won with a total score that beat Hanyu's Olympic total just weeks earlier. I've said before, Nathan is truly the only unbeatable skater in the history of the sport. Only Nathan can defeat Nathan, and then somebody else benefits, but when Nathan is at or even near top form, no one can beat him. That's amazing.

Lucky Hanyu 😀 and Lucky Fanyus 😃 and Very Unlucky ''grumpy chenbot'' 😄 and her countless use[ess "anti Yuzu essays" 😆 and GOAT remains the GOAT 😁 That's Amazing 🤣

Well done to Yuzuru for doing back to back SOLD OUT SOLO ice shows. So happy to see him thriving in the Pro Yuzu era... That's amazing !! Fly Yuzu !!

I hate the fact that Hanyu is such a Lucky GOAT and continuing making history with unbelievable SOLD-OUT SOLO ice shows over & over again, already done 12 SOLO ice shows, and announced 2 additional "RE PRAY" ice shows, due to HUGE demand. And my favorite Unlucky jumper can't even do 1 SOLD-OUT SOLO show, due to ZERO demand ☹ and fades away into irrelevance so soon. I miss him so much 😢

He would have been 2020 Montreal Canada world champion undoubtedly if it hadn't been cancelled due to Covid.

...2022-2023... he can only jump 3T

@@NormaI-Human No está compitiendo , ganó todo,, su vida es impresionante , talento innato, brillante, Excelencia Personificada...... DIOS TODOPODEROSO lo bendiga siempre grandemente y a tí también!!!!!!!! Desde Chile con muchísimo cariño!!!!!!!

@@pilarsoto3784 Thank God he stopped competing, it was really painful to watch his empty jumps getting 130 tes and crossovers getting 97 pcs... at least ilia can do 1 signature move.

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

USA is well known for buying medals for their athletes, and most ameri cans are du/mb as duck, they believe everything media feeds them.

For all skater...not only ladies...

"The judging was good" ! 😉 Exactly, Penny

"The judging was good" only for chenbots for 3 years... and now it's Ilia's turn to be judged "good" 🙃 because Ilia is the feds new "decided winner" for GPF and Worlds and Nationals... and next Olympics.

4Lo popped, 4Lz fall, 3S popped, 4T popped, 3T popped, 4A UR, 4Lz UR, very slow spins, no difficult transitions, no artistic moves... and 91.68 PCS. ''The judging was good'' ! for the new decided winner. Soon he will break all the WR if he manage to land all his planned jumps.

This is what A. Yagudin said after his FS .... :)

He was

agree 😍😍

Good for you!

Artificially created score sheet champions come and go... GOAT remains the GOAT

Yes I agreed it wasn't his bestv

He did make excuses and not only this one time. He's said his asthma attack happened AFTER his free program and he told many times during interviews. He talks regularly about how he has this injury and there was this time with the hole thing too. He has the same ice condition as his competitors and he didn't flop a jump only once in his career. Every time there weren't holes 😒 plus nathan has had a hip injury since a long time, Shoma has had an ankle injury too. Difference, they don't talk about it every chance they get. That's how real champions are. 😊 Him training 4A isn't a reason either. Every high level skater train quads. Don't find him excuses, he lost because he made mistakes.

Congratulations to Yuzu for continuing making history as a Pro athlete, doing back to back SOLD-OUT ONE-MAN ice shows... all the best for his 11th and 12th ONE-MAN ice shows in Yokohama... Fly Yuzu ✌ we are proud of you 👍

At the end, Yuzuru Hanyu remains the GOAT :) the reigning (back to back) 2-time OGM since 1952 :) 4-time (back to back) GPF :) first and only single male SUPER SLAM, 19 (WR), highest victory margins 59.82 & 55.97 points, first skater scored 100+ 200+ 300+, first skater to land 4Lo, (4T+3A), (4T+1Eu+3F), first certified 4A, only skater to land (4Lo+3A), (4Lo+3T), (4S+3A), (4T+3A+3A+3A), first and ONLY skater doing SOLD OUT SOLO ice shows and SOLO tour... Only figure skater featured in ''Art Galleries'', only male figure skater featured in "vital class level 4" a list of G.O.A.T athletes of different sports, only Asian, only Japanese and only figure skater featured in "Sports Legends Gallery" another list of "Greatest athletes" with extraordinary achievements award and medals... who made history and left a profound mark on the sporting world... Admired and acknowledged by skaters, coaches, commentators, researchers, musicians, singers, actors, dancers, directors, choreographers, photographers, PhD students... all over the world :) So proud of him, proud to be a fan of the 1 and only Yuzuru Hanyu 😊

I wish my favorite skater didn't have to retire so young at age 22 due to hip injury 🥺 I can't believe how quickly he fades away into irrelevance 😞 I wish he could stay a bit longer, I miss him so much 😢

GOEs are a joke. The judges just fudge and give the medals to whomever they want except when it's clear with Nathan that he absolutely won.

It's political and, dare I say the word, Antisemitism. All of this ugliness is going to end soon and these wonderful athletes won't have to be afraid of the flu and have to wear designer masks

It happens all the time.. when you're not American or Russian you will be underscored

@@arcdave2735...except Jason Brown IS American. Some of you are such clowns with your dumb political conspiracy theories.

It seems he had an asthma attack before the free. He wasn’t himself.

You don't know what you are talking about. You should watch the press conference also the artist. He tried his best practice without his coach for almost 1 year. He never looks for any excuses even after being underscore for his SP. His free program wasn't perfect, he know it he is human, but never say that "he didn't try" the guy won 2 times Olympics and still compete. He went though so many injuries and still skates. Anyway as I said listen to the press conference he said right next to Nathan that he want to be the first to Land the 4A. He know how good Nathan is and even if for me Yuzu is the only GOAT. Nathan diserve his win yes but please don't talk about Yuzuru Hanyu if you don't even listen to what he said. About his reaction, yes with half his face hidding... Please it's been so long that I've never seen him so dissappoint he litteraly low his head like ugh... He is angry at himself right now believe me. Anyway.

Yeah he was not himself. In the short he was pumped, energetic and happy but today he looked like he was going to pass out.

yes ive felt something b4 he skates .something happened 。he is not that excited in his looks. hes face …but for me no one can replace Hanyu Yuzuru. he is my forever Champion. 💞🎉🇯🇵

There were rumours that he had an asthma attack prior to the warm-up. I do think he wanted to win. But there were circumstances he wasn’t able to overcome in the end.

...and that is the best part.

Yuzuru's SP should have been higher? No. What you mean is, he should have skated better in his FS. He was well ahead of Yuma after the short so, no, stop taking your frustration out on the judges. Not their fault they couldn't give your idol the silver. You guys coddle Yuzuru WAY too much.

Yes his SP should have been higher, it was flawless and he definitely deserved at least 110, he was only 2 points less than Yuma in total, he could easily win silver if not too underscored in SP. Shame on I$U for robbing his silver medal, they did not want him to reach the podium, Shoma was their 3rd "decided" podium pawn.

Of course Yuzuru's SP should have been higher, Yes. There's no explanation for two 0 0 for clean 4S, +2 for clean combo, +2 for 100% perfect 3A, +1 for perfect FC spin, level 3 for perfect stsq, not a single +4 GOE for all clean elements... shame on i$u. They never deserved him.

I feel so stoopid for defending ISU judges, after ISU vice president admitted they (Underscored Hanyu) b/c he was winning too many titles (by large margins) and breaking too many WR, and they didn't want him to continue... they wanted NEW STAR on top, that's why they changed the scoring system b/c it's more easier to manipulate GOE under +5/-5 system, and later on, they removed transitions and interpretation (Hanyu's specialty) from the PCS, a clear msg for Hanyu that your efforts are not needed, we won't give you +5 across the board even if you check all the GOE buIIets, and we will give +5.03 +5.19 +5.59 +5.75 GOE and 97+ 98+ PCS to feds NEW STAR for empty jumps & crossovers, No difficult transitions, and ZERO flexible artistic signature moves... shame on ISU.

I believe everything happens for a reason, if he wasn't treated so bad by I$U/J$F, if he also got undeserved gifted GOE TES and PCS, he would never be able to do ''GIFT'' at Tokyo Dome, ''Prologue'' and ''RE PRAY". 14 SOLD-OUT SOLO ice shows. It's the injustice... more & more ppl got closer to him emotionally, b/c they could see the abuse, mentaI torture and pain he went through, and they felt the strong desire to support this unique amazing athlete/artist against the corrupt system.

i think yuzu can win without A4 he just need to be clean. i think nathen cant win without higher BV ,thats why we will see alot of quads from him.

@@emana6824 Aren't his jumps almost always getting high GOEs? High BV + high GOE = Gold. Please do correct me if I'm wrong. So I think Yuzu can't, even with a clean program because there's no guarantee he'd get high GOEs in all of his jumps.

@@pennyinheaven i think he could win with a clean program, look at the free program at the national championship in Japan, he had more than 214.

@@matteb3543 Clean Nathan vs clean Yuzu. Maybe? SP must also be clean too to anticipate Nathan's score would be like. Idk I just want a happy Yuzu at the end, with gold or not. Then there's the 4A too. An entire clean program with a 4A is a feat. He could also land 4A gorgeously but mess up the rest. Yes, maybe he doesn't need 4A to beat Nathan but for his own achievement, he does.

To think that Yuzuru has any chance with Nathan skating a clean program is delusional. And by the way, artistically, Nathan is also vastly more interesting, stylish, and sophisticated. Yuzuru, except when he opts for classical and percussion-influenced music (which are great programs), he opts for some cringeworthy cliché style of figure skating. Although that’s mostly Brian Orser’s fault, who has got to be the most impossibly cheesy coach.

Shoma got 3rd place in free skate. But the overall score which is short and free program combined placed him the fourth.

@@ericchen6096 that still doesn't make sense to me as the scores posted immediately after each fs skate by isu were what they were ...and hanyu's was higher... can you explain that to me? And thank you for your response!

@@dianegordon4410 Why does it not make sense? Yuzu was 4th in the free, 3rd overall due to finishing first in the short. Shoma 3rd in the free. The scores posted are totals for the whole event, so Yuzu higher overall. You can view the scores online if you want to see the exact scores.

Yuzuru. short program 106.98. free skate 182.20. total 289.18. 3rd place Shoma. short program 92.62. free skate 184.82. total 277.44. 4th place Besides, Shoma was always overscored for his pre-rotated yet under-rotated, two-footed landings, wrong edges... his jumps were never fully rotated, yet ignored by judges, just recently, he got some ''q'' calls, and he and his coach started crying. It seems, he's not J$F's favorite pet anymore...

то же самое!

I only watch Nathan Chen 😂😂😂😂😂😂

...and the "BOAT" is stuck at Yale, due to permanent hip injury that ended his career too soon b/c he can't jump any quads... all the best for his new career... while GOAT is continuing making history as the most successful Pro athlete.

@@NormaI-Human good one 👍

If nathan really did intend that fall then we have quite a mastermind here

You've got to be joking, right? I doubt anyone would be stupid enough to purposefully put themselves in a hole to have to try to play catch up all just because they didn't want to go last. That's the most ludicrous conspiracy theory I've ever heard. That aside, Nathan has just been dominant after the 2018 Olympics whether he has skated last or not. I'm pretty sure you're very wrong.

I'm quite sure Nathan didn't throw that fall in. He has been in the final FS position many, many times, most recently 2019 Worlds, GPF. He has no trouble with it and has actually commented he prefers the last position as it revs him up. Besides the fact that his fall obviously irritated the crap out of him!!!

It's really hilarious to see such comments one year later in view of the fact that Nathan skated the best SP in history and then skated last in the free at the Beijing Olympics.

The US may boycott the Winter Olympics in Beijing. The atmosphere is brewing unfortunately.

I disagree. Nathan has proven himself to be a gold medal contender in Beijing 2022, while Jin Boyang showed that he could not deliver here where it mattered. Karen was obviously the right choice that USFS made to send to Worlds 2021, because she won them 3 spots for next year. The pandemic has disrupted everyone's lives, but with vaccine rollouts, there is hope for everyone that countries will finally be able to open their borders, and the skaters will have more time to really train like they usually would.

BTW, Karen Chen is Taiwanese American. Her parents are from Taiwan, not China.

@@censoredyoutube4902...I'm so torn about that. It is a dream of athletes like Nathan to participate at the Olympics and win a gold, and he has plans to move on from skating soon so that he can go focus on his education. I REALLY, REALLY want him to win a gold before he leaves skating behind. BUT, at the same time...we're talking about abuses of human rights...so...UGH. I'm so freakin' torn. I seriously wish it wasn't China that'd won the right to host the 2022 Olympics * sighs *

@@divinearia1601 As an American citizen, I would put the US national security and the China human right concerns on top of everything else, Nathan's chance for Olympics gold included. The pandemic has taught us a lesson, a huge lesson! Stop overlooking the abusive power of an autocratic regime and stop giving that kind of regime all sorts of opportunities, be it commercial or hosting sport events. Without Olympics gold, Nathan has already proved himself one of the greatest figure skaters in the history, men, female, and pair all included. He's already established himself the reputation of an iconic figure. Olympics gold is just another decoration, a jewel on his crown.

Yes, I think so too. He has asthma so perhaps he was having an attack

Yup, he turned pale after seeing Nathan’s score

@@Gemini530 Exactly ! 😉
