Extractions: SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Irina Slutskaya has gotten the better of Michelle Kwan at just about every event except the big ones. Now, they will meet in the biggest one of all, the Olympics. Slutskaya, runner-up to Kwan at the last two world championships, otherwise has handled the six-time U.S. champion and gold medal favorite quite well. In their eight most recent meetings, the Russian has finished in front of Kwan six times. But the American champion won her third and fourth world titles by edging Slutskaya in 2000 and 2001. Now, Slutskaya must try to beat Kwan - not to mention the other two U.S. contenders, Sarah Hughes and Sasha Cohen - on American ice. The bubbly Slutskaya isn't exactly shaking in her skate boots over that prospect. "I don't think it matters where you skate. it matters how you skate," she said Sunday, her first day at the Olympic venue after spending nearly two weeks training 90 miles away in Logan. "I don't want to say Americans don't like me, too. "In Russia, all the fans are cheering just for you, and this is like pressure for you. Here, I am more free."
Extractions: J. Barry Mittan Art of Figure Skating Calender After skating her short program on Tuesday night, Michelle Kwan was in the lead by a narrow margin of 5-4 over Irina Slutskaya of Russia. Sasha Cohen, in her first Olympic appearance, was confident and took command of the ice during her short program. The competition was tough, as judges were closely watching for errors and taking each required deduction. Hughes, who seemed a little tense during the competition Tuesday night, made an error during a triple lutz jump and placed fourth behind Cohen. The tenseness, at least on Hughes' part, disappeared on Thursday night. In a stunning turn of events, Sarah Hughes came from behind to grab the gold, following mistakes by Cohen, Slutskaya, and Kwan in their long programs. Sarah was the second skater in the final group of six. She completed two triple-triple jump combos, the first American woman to do so in competition. After a standing ovation, Sarah skated off the ice and waited for her scores, then headed backstage to wait the results of the other skaters.
