Nathan Chen won his fourth consecutive U.S. Figure Skating Championships men’s gold medal Sunday, becoming the ninth man to do so, but the first since Brian Boitano in 1988. Chen, who won by more than 37 points, landed four quadruple jumps and six triples in his routine, which was set to the music of Elton John's “Rocketman.”

 

The 20-year-old has also won two world championships and has a bronze medal from the team event at the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics.
