Figure skating schedule for Tuesday, February 8th in the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics

 We take a look at the full figure skating schedule at the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, slated for Tuesday, February 8.


Nathan Chen's shot at redemption begins Tuesday in Beijing (Monday night in the United States). Chen, an American who is the current world champion men's figure skater, had the highest score in free skate during the 2018 Winter Olympics. But a flawed short program cost him a medal while finishing fifth in South Korea.

He fielded in the short program during last week's team event, where USA won the silver medal (ROC won the gold). But now they will have a full stage. Japan's Yuzuru Hanyu, a two-time Olympic champion, appears to be Chen's toughest challenger. The United States had a second medal in Vincent Zhou, but he tested positive for COVID-19 on Monday in China and will not be cleared for lacing his skates in singles competition.

The short program will be shown on NBC, Peacock, NBCOlympics.com and the NBC Sports app.
