Who is Johnny Weir?

Born in Coatesville, Pennsylvania on July 2, 1984, Weir began skating at the age of 12, two or three years later than most competitive skaters. 

He was the first American to win the Cup of Russia in 2007, and he was the youngest US National champion since 1991. 

Weir was also the first skater to win US Nationals three times since Brian Boitano in the late 1980s. 

Russian methods to figure skating affected him, and he formed a link with Russian history, culture, and language. 

His costume choices and outspokenness generated issues with U.S. Figure Skating, the sport's regulating body in the US throughout his skating career.
