Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a popular Wikipedia page every day.

With 429,555 views on Thursday, 10 February 2022 our article of the day is Nathan Chen.

Nathan Wei Chen (Chinese: 陈巍; born May 5, 1999) is an American figure skater who is the 2022 Olympic champion, a three-time World champion (2018, 2019, 2021), the 2017 Four Continents champion, a three-time Grand Prix Final champion (2017, 2018, 2019), and six-time U. S. national champion (2017–22). At the junior level, Chen is the 2015–16 Junior Grand Prix Final champion, 2013–14 Junior Grand Prix Final bronze medalist, and 2014 World Junior bronze medalist. Chen also helped the U. S. Olympic team win the bronze medal in the 2018 team event, and the silver medal in the 2022 team event.

Chen is nicknamed as "the Quad King" due to his ability to perform quadruple jumps with ease. Chen is the first skater to have landed five types of quadruple jumps in competition – toe loop, Salchow, loop, flip, and Lutz – as well as eight quadruple jumps across a single competition (2018 World Championships). Since placing fifth at the 2018 Winter Olympics, he had been undefeated in every competition he had entered until October 2021, both domestic and international. As of 2022, Chen is the world record holder for the short program, the free skate, and the combined score.
