Congrats Nathan!! Well deserved and EARNED! ✨☺️
Thank you from the bottom of my heart, Nathan for winning the Olympics Gold for team USA and for this great country !!!
@Eryu Kim The greatness of our nation doesn’t equate to the greatness of your nation. No nation is perfect. We appreciate that in Nathan, that he sees and appreciate USA 🇺🇸 despite of it all. Hopefully you’re okay with that. 👍✌️
@Eryu Kim Begone troll and quit being a hater
Nathan is pretty freaking awesome to watch! I want too meet him so bad, just being the same age, him being so cool, humble everything! He is amazing!!!
Omg, I just learned, now that nathan is in fact only 1 day older than me! Lol now I am more determined to watch his fantastic skating and now I am truly a fan. I want to go watch him. Not on tv but in person!
Aww the importance of the dedication and support of..Mom.💗
What a beautiful American! Congratulations to you, your mom, and us all🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
The way Nathan carry himself is ❤️ congrats on your Olympics GOLD 🥇✨

Congratulations!!! Nathan Chen is one of the most likeable people ever. I love that he recognizes his mom, is proud of both his American and Asian heritage, has an innate humility while still knowing who he is and having the confidence to shine on the world stage. Obviously he is an amazing athlete and an extremely intelligent person. Those qualities are only outshined by his wonderful personality. Again, congratulations, so, so proud of you and happy for you. Good luck with anything you undertake in the future!
Lol I don’t want to sound obsessed but I am a huge fan! Just insanely impressive!
This is how I feel!!! I’m not “into” figure skating but I just think his talent paired with his humble mindset is incredible. Best of the best!
@@corey75952 yes absolutely!
But I'm into figure skating and I'm obsessed with Nathan since his first senior season. World figure skating has never had such an athlete. Nathan won all competitions (except one SA) in the last 4 years ! I have been watching figure skating since the late 1960's ...
Someone who is not on the topic may not be able to imagine what it means to achieve 113.97 in Short Program and 335.30 Total Score .... :)

Such a fine young man! Bright future!
👋
Let’s just celebrate his accomplishments no haters
Absolutely💯
Congratulation Nathan! Thank you from bottom of my heart for your dedication, preservation, loyalty and hard working! We love you ❤️
Both my daughter and I started ice skating since Covid-19. Thank God we both are still in one piece😂
In addition to skating, he competed in gymnastics at the state and regional levels for seven years and previously trained in ballet with Ballet West Academy. Nathan entered his first figure skating competition in 2003.
Nathan is the 2022 Olympic Champion, three-time World champion (2018, 2019 & 2021), 2022 Olympic team silver medalist, 2018 Olympic team bronze medalist, 2017 Four Continents Champion, three-time Grand Prix Final Champion (2017-2019) and a ten-time U.S. national champion (2017-2022 in senior, 2012 & 2014 in junior and 2010 & 2011 in Novice). Also Nathan is a student at Yale University.
He is such a humble, talented, gifted, down to earth, optimistic, easy going, artistry, loyal, legendary figure skater and human being.
Hello Christina
Ok but he’s also a total heartthrob 😍
LOVE NATHAN CHEN!!!
Love to Nathan, and to the USA, the new country of mine.
Eventhough I am a bigger fan of Yuzuru Hanyu, cause I think he has something magical, I really think Nathan Chen is a stunning figure skater who absolutly deserves this Gold medal
Thank you for being positive! I’ve kinda seen hate from some people, so this very refereshing!
Asian-American Excellence!
+armenian coach Rafael Arutunian .I 'm proud that I stuied at the same institute of physacal education with him in Yerevan.
He is great. Very proud of him.
He is so amazing!!
So proud of him! ❤️🤩❤️
A talented skate and an Ivy League student. If skating hadn't worked out for him as it did, he still has his smarts.
Nathan also plays very advanced piano and guitar too! And Yale data science etc degree. Just not sure how he could find time to do so well in so many areas. Very impressed!!
He hasn't one more thing to prove. He skated the two most technically difficult programs in Olympics history. He changed the sport and won the gold medal in the Olympic Games. His legacy is intact. Now he has the opportunity to make his mark doing other things. I would be thrilled if Nate moved on.
Quit while you're still ahead and leave a solid and brilliant legacy behind you. In two years, after graduating from Yale, I hope he'll continue his post graduate work and then his Ph. D. In one interview, he said he would always stay in touch with his sport and probably would return in the future in some other capacity. That's exciting.
I agree
Strong and beautiful performance!!
Wonderful role model for young Americans and especially for Asian Americans! Congrats! We are so proud of you!!
love him!
Me too
Skating parents are the most loving, the work they put in for their kids.
God bless you….awesome🥇
Congrats Nathan 👍! So happy to watch this news
What a smart and young man, Nathan Chen! So many young people have been inspired by your motto that giving up is not my optional.
👋
Love love love this short interview! An amazing presence. Stunning Performance on ice! Loved the costume by Vera Wang! I immediately searched for something similar to wear but nothing comes close to that color combination. He looked amazing and magical skating to Rocket Man. Love love love
Thanks for saying that. So many people criticize his outfits as boring, but I really like them. There is nothing to distract one from appreciating his artistic athleticism...or...if you want...his athletic artistry.
This is how Legends are made !!! 🎯
Congratulations on winning 🥇 medal.
陈巍好样的👍👍👍,未来不可限量
Congratulations Nathan!!
Congratulations Nathan! You're amazing! ❤️

Congratulation Nathan! Well deserved!
Congratulations to Nathan! He is the top one in the wort!
Thanks for this video!
So proud of him!!!
Nathan is the best!
All your fans are so happy and so proud of you Nathan❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙌 we love you you’re so wonderful💖💖💖
O yeah, you are on the right path Nathan ! 🎯
He's very humble and so down-to-earth. Representation is very important, I agree. Do athletes usually train years for the Olympics or is him focusing on school and waiting couple years normal for athletes? It would be great if he could go to the Olympics again or in general other competitions but doesn't seem like that is on his mind right now, rightfully so.
How are these Asian American athletes relatable? They fucking do everything at a such highest level. As an asian parent I’m ashamed. Comparing to other Asian parents, I’m struggling at giving as much effort for my kids let alone my financial capability.
Proud American! He possesses true sportsmanship and truly inspired young people
Thanks, Nathan, When you speak you are so American and are just like me. Asians are so beautiful facially. Asians are such a great part of the beautiful American Culture. I love them and their beauty God Bless Asian Americans, Irish Americans, Polish Americans, British Americans, African Americans, Latin Americans, and all hyphenated Americans. We are such a unique blessed united culture.
This is such a nice comment. But I have to add that *he is* American. Despite being Asian American, he’s just… ya know American just like all the other Americans! Have a blessed day🥰
@@anyone1111...right? We all have different ethnic backgrounds but whether we're of Chinese descent, korean, Japanese, English, German, Irish, different nations from Africa, etc, etc,...we're all Americans. It's so weird when people act like Nathan isn't "real american" just because he's of Chinese descent. Like, WTH. There is no "standard" American because this country was originally and always a country of immigrants from all corners of the world.
A great comment by you
@@divinearia1601 exactly! Like I understand the comment wasn’t rude but if it was in real life, it would be very disrespectful. So it shouldn’t be said online either but at least the person was nice. But you are right. America is known as a melting pot, so to say that someone who is Asian isn’t straight up american, is wrong. Doesn’t matter the ethnicity. When you’re raised/ have grownup/ moved in America, you are American. No matter the race or religion or ethinicty.
The Asian folks I have interacted with during my college years were very intelligent and easy to get along with.
Congratulations nathan
Love love love him ❤️🙏👑
I'm a huge Yuzuru Hanyu fan but I do respect Nathan Chen. I would've been a fan if I saw him earlier than Yuzu, haha.. Congrats Nathan Chen! Yuzu acknowledged you and also the world. Keep it up! You truly brought your A-game and you deserve the gold. Cheers for more victories!!!
There are sportmenship between the two. I just hope that no haters that tend to spoil that. Yuzuru has his reign time, and now is Nathan's. Yuzuru will always be challenger to make this sport more interesting Don't forget new kids on the chart like Yuma, and the young US skater that skate very well in the US championship for Olympics selection.
Congratulations Nathan!!!! 👏
He fully enjoyed the performance! He was there to compete, but to enjoy 😉
So beatiful 😍😍😍😍
Be proud of you
Congratulations!!
Got to go for the next Olympics Nathan! Congrats again! So happy for u!
Proud of him, great kid
너무 멋있어요~~~~~~~~
I'm a fan of Yuzuru Hanyu. He first congratulated Nathan, a new champion.
Congrats Nathan🥇You are such a humble, talented. You are the king of figure skating🥇👑
I got a lot of energy and motivation from you.
I'm going to keep studying hard to improve my academics. Thank you Nathan Chen🤗
he is awesome!
everyone loves his skating and personality!
he is the King of Figure skating !
Nathan we proud of you!
Congratulations!
So proud of him!! Congratulations 🎉
He was born in Salt Lake City. When Sarah Hughes won the gold in 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, Chen was only 3 years old. 😊
... and Yagudin who is Chen's fan and he called Chen the legend over two years ago .... 🤍
Молодец парень.
очень очень очень счастлива за Нейта!!!! ♥♥♥
Bravo Nathan Chen por ganar la medalla de ORO.te lo tienes muy bien merecidoo..
RESPONDING TO CHINESE SOCIAL MEDIA NAME CALLING "NATHAN IS PROUD TO BE A TRAITOR".
Yes ! A Very deserved Olympic Gold Medal for the Genius Chen ! 🤍
Mama Chen, you did awesome!!! All of your support and sacrifices made Nathan the amazing person he is today!
Btw, who else thought Nathan could be an astronaut doing an interviewing after returning from space given that jacket he’s wearing? Nathan is super talented in so many areas, I know he would make a terrific astronaut if he pursues it.
How about the coach?
One of the reasons I like him is humility👍. Without him, I wouldn't focus on skating anymore in the future
The defeat 4 yrs ago must have stung so much, it rocketed him to want this gold so bad, he just dominated! Well done and showing us how to be even more thirsty for a win, and never giving up.
Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉😍👌
Brilliant 👏 skate ⛸ and clean too 👌👍
Great 👍🏽
Nathan 👏
Asian americans are soooo talented and hardworking. They got the best of both worlds. Most of them are good at multiple things. How did he juggle studies, his skating and music lessons... God!!! Such a dream this man
we all love you!
your skating is the best of best!
King of Figure skating!,
It is so exciting to see Nathan to win 🥇 🎉
Congrats. Luckily his mum never push him to represent China like Eileen’s. Somehow parents make alot of difference.
Yasss Nathen
👋
Great achievement! We won't call him traitor though.
Hey I'm a big fan
So proud of Nathan and his accomplishments and representing the US! I hope they do not give Eileen Gu the same air time.
Agree!
❤️❤️❤️
Gold. Congratulation. Wish you got some kind of sponsorship.
Nathen is the best figure skater in my mind!!! He is really heartwarming guy. I like him so much!
👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️ Nathan 🥰🥰🥰
I figured Nathan would take a year off from skating for school, but I didn't realize he was only halfway finished with Yale. He is going to need to take off two years just to finish a BA/BS at Yale and then figure out at age 24 if he wants to return to figure skating.
If I'm in to Preius marketing head, I would get Nathan to be in the next advertisement spoke person! Glad he's very open about his journey, Utah to California is a extremely long journey back and forth
Good point. 🎯
Yeah extremal long traveling distance. That speaks a lot about how unfriendly a place like Salt Lake city is (don't be fooled by its glory of hosting the 2002 Olympics) lots of Hispanic people live there and anti Asian - horrible place to live, poor infrastructure, downtown area looks like a ghost old hack, nobody cares to have it upgraded. They only want to move to Lehi or South Jordon, white men areas LOL, to get away.
The magnitude of a mom trying to overcome the odds to offer her son a better resource is amazing.
It really sucks that Michelle never won Gold… she’s one of the greatest American skaters to ever take the ice.
Good Job !
❤️😊
Best ❤️❤️❤️
Nathan Chen: Yale Data Science student, Olympic Gold Medalist, World Champion, pianist, plays the guitar, perfect Asian child 🤣🤣🤣
Nathan is truly multi-talented. He is not only an Olympic champion, he is also a superb pianist and versatile dancer. I enjoy watching all his incredible performance.
