At the Olympics, American skater Maxim Naumov delivered an emotional performance after a challenging year. Naumov's parents, former world champion skaters, were among those killed in a plane crash a year prior. He skated to Nocturne No. 20, dedicating his performance to his parents and expressing his desire to make them proud. Despite a slight slip, he achieved a season-best score of 85.65, securing a spot in the free skate. He carried a photo of his parents with him as a child, keeping it close to his heart. Meanwhile, Spanish skater Tomas-Llorenc Guarino Sabate, known for his Minions-themed routines, faced copyright issues but was ultimately able to perform his routine.
