Ilia Malinin, of the United States, leads the field as we head into the Men’s Figure Skating final at the Milano-Cortina Olympics. He is followed closely, in 2nd place, by Yuma Kagiyama, of Japan, behind by just five points.  Once again the men’s field is stacked with popular names like Adam Siao Him Fa of France, in 3rd and world silver medalist Mikhail Shaidorov of Kazakhstan in 5th.  Another major talent to look out for is Russian skater Petr Gumennik in 12th.  He is participating as a neutral athlete, and many felt he was underscored in the Short Program. Let’s see if he can close the gap today! 

 

Good luck to everyone taking part today.
