Why would a figure skater need to dope?

and would it be the female single skater? You can make some huge money for anyone other woman to win.

Figure skating is an incredibly physical & demanding sport

Not that these 2 clueless announcers realized that. Them trying to kill time during the injury was some pretty serious cringe.

What the? CBC is showing it now with 2 other announcers who are like 1000000 times better than those 2 on TSN.

Looks like they are caught up. Watch on CBC folks and not TSN!

TSN is showing Olympic Generic Feed which is available to all rights holders with whatever English broadcasters the Olympic Broadcasting Service has. CBC is showing their own announcers over the same feed
