Amber Glenn, a United States figure skater in the Winter Olympics who proclaimed herself a “woke bitch,” finished 13th place in the short program.
Sports Illustrated reported, “With a score of 67.39 … Glenn finished in 13th place in Tuesday’s competition.”
SI added, “Her mistake cost her seven technical points from her score. It’ll be extremely difficult for her to medal on Thursday following the free skate.”
The poor finish follows a gold-winning performance on Sunday, after which Glenn showed off her medal with teammate Alysa Liu in a a TikTok post that read: “They hate to see two woke bitches winning.”
The post continued, “If ‘Woke’ means people who use their platforms to advocate for marginalized communities in the country that they are actively representing …… Then yeah sure?”
Glenn describes herself as a “pansexual” and “bisexual,” Breitbart reported.
Glenn has repeatedly criticized President Donald Trump while at the Olympic games in Milan Cortina, the Huffington Post and other outlets reported.
She previously said, “It’s been a hard time for the [LGBTQ+] community overall in this administration.”
Another olympian, U.S. freestyle skier Hunter Hess, professed “mixed feelings” about representing the U.S., because of the Trump administration. This led to Trump calling her a “real loser.”
