I love his sense of humor. Can’t believe he had so much going on in his mind while he was skating. Genius.

[@divinearia1601]

He has so much discipline. His mind is like a calculator. I figured his head was prob super at processing info since he speaks so fast ☺️ Miss you, Nathan. It's just not the same without you on the ice.

[@thulekovish8188]

Oh, suddenly at mid program, you had a few options: "Scratch the Flip..., put the Flip at the end of the Lutz... or flip the Flip to a Triple Salchow..." What?! What?! It's mind-blowing! How could you think at all, Nathan? My goodness, who are you? LOL, I could see smoke coming out of my ears thinking the way you think. You're ONE OF A KIND, Nathan Chen. Much love and admiration, and hope to see you skate again someday.

[@teresa643]

He’s so sweet. It’s really mindblowing to hear his commentary, I had no idea that you have to do math while skating or trying to end the programme facing the judges, so many things going on in his head. Love his sense of humour❤

[@Salmiyaguy1]

There's a moment in every gold medal win in figure skating where the skater wishes he or she could go back and re-skate. 😁😁

[@treyes5177]

Love him!

[@bluemountain555]

I'd love to see you meet up with Sir Elton John, Nathan! Two brilliant, exceptional, artistic, multi-talented, groundbreaking stars!

[@7girl]

That performance was so surreal. I became a fan through that. Nathan Chen is an amazing athlete, and he deserves all the love and success! Wooohooo he achieved his life-long goal and still was so calm... He's got it figured out, very admirable

[@lorrainemiddy4011]

Lord he is doing maths calculations in the middle of his routine .... only skater who is capable of doing that

[@quintupleaxel]

Apparently many top skaters think that way. They have to.

Cue Fanyu's in 3...2...1...

[@25Dec87]

Nathan and Hanyu are huge fans and supporters of each other. Talent recognizes talent. They have one of the best competitive rivalries in skating history and have great respect for each other. It's completely possible and probable to like, support and appreciate them both, as I do !🥰✌

[@luceafarul579]

3wks, you must be counting negatives by now 😆

[@theakyosmith]
