After 11 years on the ice, two-time national champion Alysa Liu, 16, has announced her retirement from figure skating.
“Now that I’m finally done with my goals in skating, I’m going to be moving on with my life,” Liu said. “I’m probably just gonna spend all my spare time with my family and friends, and I’m also going to study.”from the 2022 U.S. Figure Skating Championships after testing positive for COVID-19 in January 2022, right before the women’s free skate competition in Beijing.
Refusing to give up the ultimate chance to showcase her talent, Liu became the first skater to petition for a spot in the Olympics since Michelle Kwan did so in 2006 due to a groin injury. And her persistence paid off. After qualifying for Team USA's figure skating team and being granted permission to compete, Liu ended up scoring a 69.50 to place eighth in the women’s short program at the Winter Games.
