Madison Chock and Evan Bates will be added to the U.S. team on the final day of the team event.
The Sochi 2014 Games marked the Olympic debut of both the team event and Chock and Bates , but they were passed over for a spot on the U.S. team in both 2014 and 2018 .
Chock and Bates are ready now, though, as the 2022 U.S. champions and 2021 world fourth-place finishers, and they’ll attempt to match the win Hubbell and Donohue earned earlier in the Games. Knierim and Frazier also look to continue their own momentum. They were third in the pairs short, behind world and Olympic medalists.
Heading into the final night, the Russian Olympic Committee leads with 45 points, followed by the U.S. and Japan . At this point, Canada and China are vying for fourth.
