'This was a wonderful tribute to a very long, very successful career that she's had to fight hard for.'
At the end of Bell's free skate, she was in first place with a score of 136.92, but that was before other skaters performed and topped her score."She fought for those jumps," said NBC's Terry Gannon."She's fought doubt. She's fought time. And now she's had her moment at the Olympics."
The 25-year-old made her Olympic debut on Tuesday during the short program portion of the competition, becoming the oldest American women's singles skater to take the ice at the Games since 1928. She was a second alternate for Team USA at the 2018 Winter Olympics. "This was the exact Olympic moment she was hoping for. That was absolutely incredible," Lipinski said, adding:"Each jump I felt my emotion growing, growing. I just wanted her to hang on to every single landing. And she was so secure and confident, and there is such a genuine, raw, warm emotion about her skating. It's not just an artistic presentation, it's like she's sharing a little bit of herself with you and with the audience.
Coach Adam Rippon hugged Bell off the ice after her nearly flawless performance and was heard saying,"I need a drink." "To perfect simplicity is much harder than to disguise imperfection, and she fought," Weir said, referring to Bell's near slip, where she didn't put a foot or hand down."She fought.""This music, 'Hallelujah,' the choreography. It's just so perfect. It fits her to a T," Lipinski said. Weir added,"It's so warm, and buttery, and soft, and nice, and velvety.
