Boston, Massachusetts - Beautiful eighteen year old US Figure Skater Gracie Gold was having the time of her life as she won the U.S Nationals and will be making the long trip to Sochi, Russia for the 2014 Winter Olympics.
Gold was blistering hot on an unseasonably warm, humid night in Boston, scorching the former U.S. record by 10 points for a total score of 211.69. With a packed TD Garden and nerves running high, each competitor knew what was at stake. Gold credited her new coach, Frank Carroll, with helping her stay focused.
"The nerves are something I've battled with and [have] let them get into my head," Gold said. "But tonight I felt strangely calm. And Frank's got an eye. We just found a quiet corner [and] waited for the six skaters."
We can't wait to see how this beautiful young lady does in Sochi, Russia for the 2014 Winter Olympics next month.
Gracie Gold born August 17, 1995 is an American figure skater. She is the 2012 World Junior silver medalist, the 2014 U.S. national champion, and has been named to the U.S. team for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.
