Fans are concerned after it was revealed that videos with vulnerable messages were reposted by “Quad God” Ilia Malinin<\/a> on TikTok.<\/p>\n

The 21-year-old had a clear path to win the men’s singles skating gold medal on Friday night, but after falling twice,<\/a> he settled for eighth place.<\/p>\n

Malinin was blunt about his performance when speaking to NBC afterward, saying simply, “I blew it,” and it was a clear mental hurdle from start to finish.<\/p>\n

Afterward, Malinin reposted several TikToks<\/a>, including one with the message, “Sometimes I wish something bad would just happen to me so I don’t have to do it myself.”<\/p>\n

Another video had the message, “Your little boy is tired mom.”<\/p>\n

Malinin also shared posts from “Healing Letters,” an account that writes messages in a book. One said, “When I get home and step into my room and my eyes start watering because no one knows how hard I’m truly trying.”<\/p>\n

Another one said, “Nothing hurts more than trying your best and still not being good enough,” and the book was slammed shut.<\/p>\n

U.S. Figure Skating did not immediately respond to a request for comment, as fans showed plenty of concern and support throughout the comments.<\/p>\n

“YOU DID SO WELL ILIA, YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!!!!! I LOVE YOU,” one user wrote.<\/p>\n

“Ilia \ud83d\ude41 I Hope he is okay\u2026” added another.<\/p>\n

“You are still a champion, Ilia Malinin One result doesn\u2019t define your talent or your strength. We\u2019re proud of you no matter what place you take. Keep going – your time to shine is always ahead. You are the best,” one more said.<\/p>\n

‘QUAD GOD’ ILIA MALININ FALLS TWICE, FINISHES EIGHTH AFTER SHOCKING PERFORMANCE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Malinin admitted his mind was pretty cluttered<\/a> as he took the ice.<\/p>\n

“I just had so many thoughts and memories flood right before I got into my starting pose, and almost, I think, it maybe overwhelmed me a little bit. I’ve been through a lot in my life, a lot of bad and good experiences,” Malinin said to reporters. “So, I just feel like it’s the pressure of especially being that Olympic gold medal hopeful. It was just something I can’t control now.”<\/p>\n

“The pressure of the Olympics, it’s really something different, and I think not a lot of people understand that. They only understand that from the inside and going into this competition, especially today, I felt really confident, really good,” he added. “But it really just went by so fast I did not have time to process.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

When his routine started Friday, Malinin connected on a quad flip to start but then settled for a single axel. He then had a double loop instead of a quad loop. He fell on a quad Lutz attempt and then fell on another jump shortly after. He scored 156.33 points, a far cry from the world record of 238.24 he set in December and the 200-point mark he routinely hits in the free skate.<\/p>\n

Mikhail Shaidorov of Kazakhstan won the gold with a total score of 291.58, a personal best. His score of 198.94 in Friday’s free skate was also the highest of his career. Yuma Kagiyama of Japan<\/a> got the silver, and Shun Sato, Kagiyama’s teammate, came away with the bronze.<\/p>\n

Malinin, who posts total scores in the 300s regularly, settled for just 264.49 points. His personal best is 333.81.<\/p>\n
