Adeliia Petrosian — the 18-year-old Russian, whose ties to a scandal-scarred coach threatens to put another harsh spotlight on the sport — quickly made herself a medal contender on Tuesday in the women’s short program after judges awarded her a career-best score of 72.89.
Japan's Riku Miura and Ryuichi Kihara soared from fifth place to Olympic gold with a world-record free skate on Monday. The final day of Olympic pairs skating brought records, history and heartbreak.
One of these pairs has already made history, in that Kam and O'Shea have a nearly 14-year age difference, which makes them the team with the largest age gap for any U.S. pair to have competed at worlds since at least 1990, according to NBC News research.
