Mirai Nagasu is the first USA female figure skater to land the triple axel at Winter Olympics @ Pyeongchang 2018 (and Team USA being the cutest cheering section ever)
It’s probably been mentioned but the American skater Mirai Nagasaki is in fact only the third women to land a triple axel at the Olympics.
First AMERICAN.
The first and second were Midori Ito and Mao Asada, Japan.
Thank you.
