Ilia Malinin landed six of his seven planned quad jumps to win his third consecutive U.S. figure skating championship on Sunday.

He might've planned to land seven quads, but the reigning World champion romped to another national crown by hitting on six of them.

Ilia Malinin doesn’t back down. When all of his jumping passes at last month’s Grand Prix Final were judged to contain under-rotation, he still had a sweatshirt made that reproduced the scoresheet, a memento of his having tried a free skate program with unprecedented difficulty.
