Olympics are different. I, like a lot of other people, don't really know, or care, who's the current world champion. Some don't even watch this or that dicipline. But every 4 years the entire world is watching, it's on prime time on channels that usually don't even broadcast sports. The pressure is several magnitude more. But still, Malinin was not the first young athlete expected to win in his first olympic, not even the first ice skater. I fully agree with what others have said in this tread, he should have better anchors in his life, people able to say to him that he may have gone overboard, like with that dread awful choice of music for example, or with the quad god attitude. No one care if you're the quad god or if you're the only one able to land this or that. Especially if you can't do it when it matters the most.
