Just something logical tho: he wants to win 2 Olympic golds in a row to enter history the way Dick Button did. But knowing Yuzuru, that is only the first step to enter in the history book. What has never been done before? That's right, 3 Olympic golds in a row (or not even in a row, right?) :laughing: We gotta find a way somehow to make him crave for that triplette!

 

No doubt it will be pretty epic! Korean fans are hardcore just like Chinese and Japanese fans, right? 

 

Actually three Olympic golds in a row have happened before, in the mythical days of the beginning of figure skating as an Olympic discipline :laughing: Swedish skater Gillis Grafström did it in 1920, 24 & 28 Games. Of course it was almost a different sport than today. And yes, I find it plausible that Yuzu would want to repeat that feat in modern times once he succeed in defending his title for the first time. 1) He's always pushing limits and claims to have not sensed his boundaries any where near him yet. That possibility must be enticing for him. 2) With his excellent technique & body type, quads will probably not take as much and as quickly a toll on his body like it does other men.

 

And the Pooh rain: the Olympic being in Korea makes an epic Pooh rain very convenient. Big groups of Japanese and Chinese fans are traveling to Pyeongchang with a Pooh army, to join the local Korean forces! (Good job Yuzu, for making peace and harmony for East Asia :biggrin:)

Dang! Then Yuzuru has to stay for 2022. No choice. The temptation will be too strong :laughing:
