Amber Glenn

Amber Glenn's figure skating career has been marked by notable achievements and pioneering moments. She is a 2026 Olympic Games team event gold medalist and a three-time U.S. national champion (2024–26). Glenn's technical prowess is evident in her becoming the fourth American woman to land a clean triple axel in international competition. Her resilience and determination saw her set a new personal best total score of 190.83 at the 2020 Four Continents Championships despite facing challenges such as a severe concussion and a foot infection. Moreover, Glenn's influence extends beyond the rink, as she has used her platform to advocate for LGBTQ+ rights and openly identifies as pansexual.

Glenn's ascendancy in the sport is marked by a string of victories in international competitions, including the 2024–25 Grand Prix Final champion, the 2023 World Team Trophy, and the 2024 Lombardia Trophy. Her performances at the 2024 Grand Prix de France and the 2024 Cup of China not only won her the titles but also set new personal bests in the short program, free skate, and overall total. Glenn's consistent performance led to her being named to the 2026 Winter Olympic team, making her the oldest U.S. women's singles skater to qualify for the Olympics since 1928.

Among her accolades, Glenn's Olympic performance stands out. She not only won gold in the team event, but also became the first openly LGBTQ woman representing the United States in Olympic singles figure skating.
