Team USA figure skating is headed to Beijing for the 2022 Winter Games—and it’s bound to be a history making year. Rising star Alysa Liu, 16, is taking her first shot at gold on the women’s team, and Nathan Chen, who has broken his own men’s short program record, is a top medal contender for the men. In the ice dancing competition, veteran pair Madison Chock and Evan Bates will compete with a routine set to music by Daft Punk. And pairs skater Timothy LeDuc will become the first openly non-binary U.S. athlete to compete at the Winter Games when they step on the ice with partner Ashley Cain-Gribble.
