The 18-year-old from Vienna. Va., dominates the men's short program at the U.S. figure skating championships.
He smiled; he started looking at the crowd in the half-filled arena; he threw his shoulders out and kicked his leg high. And as he skated past a television camera set up next to the ice, he turned his head back and looked long into the lens.Even before his leading score of 110.36 was announced, the fans in the arena knew they were seeing something special on the opening day of the men’s competition.
Now, Malinin — who did not attempt a quad axel Friday but will probably have one in his free skate Sunday — is in excellent position to win his first national championship, with a significant lead over two-time Olympian Jason Brown and Tomoki Hiwatashi. If Malinin wasn’t aware of his place atop American skating, it came clear to him when a huge shout followed the introduction of his name before Friday’s skate.“That was a really big difference,” he said. “I thought it was going to be the same as last year. … ‘Oh, who’s this, he came back for another year.’ ”
Despite the seeming ease with which Malinin skated Friday, landing the two quads he tried — a Lutz and a toe loop — he went into the afternoon nervous about the performance. He has struggled in his short programs this year, making up the difference with prodigious free skates.“I was really happy, and I just sort of let it all out,” he said.
