It requires insane strength, quickness, balance, and control… I've always found success in sports by outworking the competition. That is how I intend to approach Sochi. ”Evan is looking to compete in the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia where he will attempt to become the first man to win back-to-back Olympic figure skating titles in more than half a century. Personal Evan began skating at age eight and went on to becoming the reigning Olympic champion. He captured the gold medal at the 2010 Games, the first American in 24 years to hold the prestigious title. Evan’s time off the ice is equally noteworthy. In April 2012 he was appointed a sports envoy by the U.S. Department of State, a position in which he engages overseas youth in positive dialogue on the importance of education, positive health practices and respect for diversity. Evan also gives his time and talents to organizations including Figure Skating in Harlem, Make-A-Wish Foundation and Ronald McDonald House.
