Alysa you are GOLDEN. 🥇⁣
⁣
Alysa Liu ends a long drought for Team USA, who hadn’t won a women’s Olympic singles figure skating gold since 2002. 🥇⛸️🇺🇸⁣
⁣
To put it in perspective: Alysa Liu was just five months old when a U.S. woman last medaled in singles skating in 2006 — and she wasn’t even born the last time an American woman won gold. 🤯⁣
⁣
The youngest woman to land a triple Axel in international competition. The first woman to combine a quadruple jump with a triple Axel. The same girl who won two U.S. Championships and made the Olympic team before junior prom just ended the U.S. drought. 🥇⛸️⁣
⁣
Not only that — she did what most skaters don’t. Liu came out of retirement in 2024, punctuating her return with the 2025 World Championship before claiming Olympic gold. 🫶⁣
