Great Britain’s Lilah Fear and Lewis Gibson are poised to make history at the upcoming Winter Olympics as they strive to secure the nation’s first figure skating gold in nearly 30 years, reminiscent of the iconic success of Jayne Torvill and Christopher Dean. The last figure skating medal for Team GB was won by Torvill and Dean, who took bronze during the Lillehammer Games in 1994, a decade after their celebrated gold medal performance in Sarajevo.
Fear and Gibson, who recently achieved their fourth consecutive podium finish at the European Championships, enter the competition as strong contenders. Currently, they are ranked fourth ahead of the free dance finale, where they aim to elevate their standing and secure a place on the podium at the 2026 Games.
In addition to their story, Kirsty Muir and Mia Brookes displayed commendable performances, finishing fourth in both the women’s freeski slopestyle and Big Air events. Meanwhile, the curling duo of Bruce Mouat and Jennifer Dodds narrowly fell short of the Olympic bronze medal yesterday, showcasing the competitive spirit of Team GB’s athletes.
As the Winter Olympics in Milano-Cortina approach, excitement builds around the potential achievements of these talented athletes. Fans are encouraged to stay tuned for live updates and results as Team GB competes for glory on the world stage.
