Professional athletes of any sport work incredibly hard to get to where they are. Whether it's the rougher sports like boxing, or the more graceful sports like figure skating, behind every Olympic athlete is hours of sweat, pain, and tears. But even the more graceful sports demand a high level of performance, which, as proven by these close-up contorted faces of Olympic figure skating, are anything but graceful. You. Are. Welcome!
