World champion Nathan Chen on Yale, success, quads, and Yuzuru Hanyu.

Figure skater and two-time world champion Nathan Chen sat down with Olympic champion Meryl Davis to talk about how he recovered from his 2018 Olympic performance to winning his third Grand Prix Final in 2019.

He beat Yuzuru Hanyu in Turin but the pair share a mutual respect and love competing against each other.

“(He) really fires me up, makes me want to take my jumps more and makes me want to be a little bit more aggressive with my skating. I think that's something that I don't feel quite as much when he's not competing with me.”
