VANCOUVER— Kim Yuna, at Olympics 2010 gave the astonishing performance by winning the gold medal on Thursday night. South Koreans call her Queen as it is not now a coronation but a confirmation that she is the best at skating than any other woman on Earth.To observe Kim Yu-Na on the ice is to emerge the similar feelings as you find when sprinter Usain Bolt is waiting in the relay for the stick.

It is alike as Michael Phelps who flapped his arms.Everybody knows it that the game is over.While the scoring system implemented after the judging disgrace at the 2002 Salt Lake City Games, now at Olympics 2010, only Kim Yu-Na shows the blend of athleticism and artistic quality.On Thursday at Olympics 2010, Kim Yu-Na performed the triple jumps and threw six of them in free skate.

On Tuesday too in short programs she made the world record scores.Kim Yu-Na changed herself into an impertinent girl by giving her rocking performance on Tuesday. Yesterday too she gave her splendid analysis to George Gershwin’s “Concerto in F.”For Kim skating is not meant to be only a sport but also a art.Kim Yu-Na herself said, “I always try my best.” It is the complete package. “Of course the other skaters do their best.

Maybe I’m lucky!”Actually its really good, in skating at Olympics 2010, Japan’s Mao Asada was a remote second one and Joannie Rochette was the third and won the Bronze Medal, his mother died a few days before. Rochette said, “I hope this medal inspires some people to go after their dreams, no matter what — no matter what happens.”In women’s figure skating Kim’s conquest underscores two marked trends:First, the Asian skaters are on the mount. At winter Olympics 2010, Kim Yu-Na’s gold medal is the first gold for the South Korea in skating; Japan’s Shizuka Arakawa won gold in Olympics 2006.[smartads]

Furthermore, same Japan’s Miki Ando won the world championships of 2007; in 2008, Asada won the worlds; Kim won in 2009.Two, American skaters require something new, who for a long period of time dominated the sport.Instead of the conventional three, the American women earned merely two spots here at these 2010 Winter Games because of rough performance at last year’s world championships in Los Angeles. 12 long points’ far away from Rochette in third, Mirai Nagasu ended fouth here; Rachel Flatt remained at seventh.

In Olympic Games, 2010 is the first year for the American’s in which woman has not won a medal. After a plane crash incident in 1961, which took the lives of the whole U.S. figure skating team which en route to that year’s world championships. So, 1964 Games were the first Olympics Games for U.S. figure skating players.Nagasu said, “In Sochi” who is 16 years old and even does not have driving license of California yet, “I hope to go for the gold.”Kim Yu-Na’s triumph at Olympics at 2010 will certainly means millions to her in endorsement opportunities.

This will take her as the leading celebrities of South Korea. It also means a source to come billions of dollars to South Korea.How it is possible? Kim Yu-Na yet plays a dominant role in Pyeongchang’s bid for the Winter Games of 2018, her and gold charm of Kararina Witt, one of the lights of Munich’s bid for those Winter Games.

The way Kim Yu-Na skate on Thursday at Olympics 2010, she had to do to make it all drop in her part.Anyone who watched her last year’s world’s win knew that she would win the gold medal at Olympics 2010.

Kim Yu-Na, ranks third in the world in 2007 and 2008, who trains in Toronto with Brain Orser , two time winner of silver medalist to get away the media crush in Seoul and locate altogether last year in L.A.An interesting fact that Kim Yu-Na in skating won the gold medal at Olympics 2010 by giving such a superior lead over Asada and Rochette on Tuesday during the record-setting program.

The short program too untied Kim sensitively..”I think she’s just going to soar after this,” Orser told Associated Press. “She’s just going to fly.”Kim Yu-Na flew.Kim Yu-Na scored 150.06 in free-skate. She obliterated the ancient world record—hers— by getting 17 points. Kim told with laughing, “It was almost a man’s score,”Her last scoring, 228.56 is better than in comparison of 10 points what Jeremy Abbott scored.

Jeremy Abbott is the two-time winner of the U.S. national champion, managed now and would have put Kim ninth in the men’s Olympic competition.At Olympics 2010, men are permitted to do one extra jump than women in their free skate’s performance- that makes Kim-Yu-Na more remarkable.Kim-Yu-Na becomes the queen by winning the gold medal at Olympics 2010 on Thursday.

Kim-Yu-Na wore the crown earrings for her remarkable victory. Kim-Yu-Na suited by them. South Korean’s feel proud on this outstanding and amazing performance at Olympics 2010.
