The 18-year-old figure skater Isabeau Levito competed at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina, and a podium finish by her teammate Alysa Liu ended a 20-year medal drought for the United States in women’s singles. The last American woman to win an Olympic medal was Sasha Cohen, who captured silver in 2006.
Levito’s programs have already drawn attention. In the short program, she performs to “Zoo Be Zoo Be Zoo” as a tribute to Italian cinema icon Sophia Loren. Her free skate uses music from the 1988 Academy Award-winning film Cinema Paradiso. The themes match her strong Italian family background. The young skater carried both artistic expression and national hopes onto the Olympic ice in what was her debut Games appearance.
