Ilia Malinin has already been a bright spot for Team USA at the 2026 Milano-Cortina Winter Olympics, and he has a chance to add more hardware at his first Games.
Malinin’s score of 200.03 in the free skate portion of the combined team competition resulted in the United States taking gold in the event for the second consecutive Olympics on Feb. 8. The 21-year-old from Vienna, Virginia, known as the ‘Quad God,’ didn’t attempt a quad axle in his run, although he landed a one-legged backflip and still showed plenty of flair.
Malinin still has two more chances at earning medals, in both the men’s free skate and short program.
Malinin is one of the breakout stars of the 2026 Winter Olympics, and he’s looking to head back to the United States as one of the biggest winners of the 17-day competition.
