While the jump is a mainstay in men’s figure skating, it’s still relatively rare in the women’s event. Among the women competing at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, few have ever

No one can blame you for not being able to peel your eyes away from Olympic figure skating — but between the sport’s complicated scoring system, the vast number of jumps and other skills the skaters perform, and the onslaught of sequins, it’s OK if you’re feeling as overwhelmed as you are fascinated.
