Kim wins ladies’ figure skating gold medal
VANCOUVER (AP) -- All that pressure, all those expectations. Kim Yu-na could feel the weight on her dainty shoulders.
The ”Queen” took it all on and delivered royally.
A gold medal.
A world record.
A women’s figure skating performance that likely will be remembered as one of the best of all time.
The South Korean soared to the Olympic gold medal Thursday night, scoring 228.56 points and shattering her previous world record by more than 18 points. It is South Korea’s first medal at the Winter Olympics in a sport other than speedskating, and it’s sure to set off wild celebrations from Seoul to Pyongchang.
Even Kim seemed to be dazzled by the show she put on, gasping when she saw the monstrous score. Coach Brian Orser gave a Rocky-like victory pump, shaking his clasped fists over each shoulder.
”I still can’t believe it,” Kim said. ”I waited a long time for the Olympics, and it feels like a large weight has been lifted off.”
The 19-year-old grinned as she hopped up to the top spot on the podium, tugging at the bottom of her dress. When the gold medal was slipped over her head, she kissed both sides and held it up. Her lip quivered when the South Korean anthem began, and then came the tears.
