Chen and Hanyu traded their 2018 roles of one making a shocking error and the other performing exquisitely.
No one would have blamed Chen for withdrawing from the event after that short program in Pyeongchang. But in a true display of grit and perseverance, he pulled off an explosive comeback in the long program. Chen landedquads instead of his planned five, a first in skating history, and placed first in the long. Even with that massive free skate score, though, it still wasn’t enough to climb from the depths of his short score onto the podium; his combined score was only enough for fifth place.
As Hanyu began his program, skating to “Introduction and Rondo Capriccioso” by Camille Saint-Saens, he seemed to be the calm, collected champion of the past two Olympic cycles. Then, suddenly, his hopes of gold seemed to disappear in a blink of an eye. On the very first element of his program, a planned quadruple salchow, Hanyu made an uncharacteristic mistake and “popped” the jump, only completing a single salchow instead.
