Everything looks OK, for Nathan Chen and the U.S. Olympic figure skating crew.
With a quiet, clean short program by the authoritative three-time best on the planet, Team USA dashed out to an early lead Friday in the group contest at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics. The Americans won the initial two occasions – the men’s diminutive program and beat dance – and are sitting in the lead position in the 10-country rivalry after Day 1.
The Russian Olympic Committee, which is expected to win gold in the group occasion, is in runner up, trailed by China in third. The main five groups after the ladies’ short program Sunday will progress to the free skates, with decorations granted Monday.

Our group has incredible potential, and I feel that was shown in the present exhibitions, said veteran ice artist Evan Bates, the skipper of the U.S. group. I don’t really imagine that we feel astounded driving the group occasion. Checking out our list, we realize we can possibly get back a gold award in this occasion.
