M. Swift Posted: Wed February 4, 1998 Everything fell into place at the moment when everything seemed to be most up in the air, when the questions about Michelle Kwan's injured foot, her training and her confidence were swarming about her like so many wasps. Was she in pain? Had the stress fracture in the second toe of her left foot fully healed? After having been in a cast most of November, would she be in shape for the U.S. nationals in Philadelphia and ready to compete? If she withdrew, as she'd been forced to do from the Champions Series Final in mid-December, would she be guaranteed a spot on the Olympic team? After losing confidence in her skating last year, Kwan, at Lake Arrowhead, has rediscovered the beauty of her sport.

Share Michelle Kwan And Worlds It Is March 11, 2004 Gary Anolik On Wednesday March 10, 2004 , the reigning United States Women's Figure Skating Champion, Michelle Kwan, met with reporters to discuss her preparations for the upcoming World Figure Skating Championships. The event will be held at Dortmund Westfalenhallen in Dortmund, Germany beginning on March 23, 2004. Kwan has competed at every World Championship event since 1994, winning the gold for the first time in 1996 and again in in 1998, 2000, 2001, and 2003. Kwan also won silver in 1997, 1999, and 2002 for a total of eight medals of the 10 World competitions. The 23-year-old won her eighth US National Championship this past January, receiving seven perfect scores in her long program. Given that Kwan has had a very distinguished and long career, which also includes two Olympic medals, the same question comes up time after time. Has she had enough? Is the icon of American figure skating going to bow out, or is she going to give the Olympic gold one last try? "It's not time for me to stop skating now," Kwan stated. "When I got home from the 2002 Olympics, I was going to hang up my skates," she continued. "But it just didn't seem right. The desire was still there."

E-mail this article Print this article Search archive Most read articles Most e-mailed articles RSS feeds That's what it takes to measure the impact crater, immeasurably deep and a decade wide, left on figure skating by Michelle Kwan. Imagine Portland this week without her quest to put it all together, one last time, and lay claim to the crown of the greatest American woman ever to strap on skates. That's a good story on its own. But the matching of musty records does little to bring to life what can only be described as a presence, on the ice and off, that American sport has rarely seen. When Kwan stepped to center ice to perform her short program in Portland for the first time this week, a buzz went through a crowd that had been listless and bored. Kids squirmed to the fronts of their seats in the Rose Garden. Parents readied cameras. The meeting came to order. Tonight U.S. Figure Skating Championships:
