Olympic TV highlights for Thursday: Figure skater Nathan Chen looks to bounce back

After Nathan Chen’s shaky start in his Olympic debut in the short program of the team event — he landed only one of his two patented quad jumps, turning the second into a double — the 18-year-old American will return to the ice Thursday.

Competing in the short program of the men’s singles competition, Chen can set himself up well entering Friday’s decisive free skate. At last year’s national championships, where he won his second straight U.S. title, he became the first skater ever to land five quads in competition.

Alpine ski racer Mikaela Shiffrin, meanwhile, will try to become the first woman to win back-to-back Olympic gold medals in the slalom.
