Madison Chock and Evan Bates have earned medals in the team event and ice dance at Milan-Cortina 2026

Even die-hard figure skating fans might not have heard of Jezabel Dabouis this time last week. Now, she is in the limelight. And not for the right reasons.

Dabouis was a judge in the free dance segment of the ice dance event at the Winter Olympics, where medals were decided.

On Wednesday, the French couple of Laurence Fournier Beaudry and Guillaume Cizeron narrowly beat the American team of Madison Chock and Evan Bates.

Dabouis scored Fournier Baudry and Cizeron nearly eight points higher over three-time world champions and Milan-Cortina 2026 team event gold medallists Chock and Bates.
