Alysa Liu closed out the figure skating at the Milano Cortina Games during the Exhibition Gala with a stunning performance and yet another head-turning dress.
The 20-year-old Liu put on the performance of her life — in a bold gold dress — to win gold after she was third following the short program.
Liu became the first female U.S. Olympic champion since Sarah Hughes did it in 2002 at Salt Lake City.
Afterward, she was flooded with emotions — even dropping an F-bomb. Her dad Arthur was seen going crazy as well.
She also had the ultimate display of sportsmanship after.
It’s been a whirlwind couple of days for the girl from Oakland, California, as she appeared very tired while waiting to be a guest on The Today Show.

She had to muster up one more skate for the Gala, and while meaningless in terms of scoring, it was her chance to let loose on the ice stress-free and show off what an Olympic gold medalist can do.
She did that not only with her skate, but with her fit in a dress looking like a princess.

Here are more looks at it:
Liu was the youngest national champion ever at age 13 in 2019, but retired shortly after competing in the 2022 Beijing Olympics at 16. She returned to competitive figure skating in March of 2024. Now she’s an Olympic champion as an individual at the Milano Cortina Games, as well as a second in the team event.

She’ll be just 24 when the Games shift to France in 2030.
For now, she continued to enjoy the Milano Cortina Games.
