Q is for Queen Yu-Na

Q is for the reigning Queen of the ice Yu-Na Kim:

Yu-Na Kim (or is it Kim Yu-Na?) won gold at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and ever since her fans have named her "Queen" Yu-Na. Here is her Olympic short program to a James Bond Medley and her long program to a Gershwin Piano Concerto. Those inspired performances were her coronation as queen of the ice.

It will be interesting to see her compete at the 2011 World Championships next week in Russia. Will she still have that competitive spark after achieving the highest honor in her sport?

That was awesome! You can never look bad moving to 007! As a terrible ice skater, the way they move, jump and twist on the ice is fascinating. Thanks for sharing! Good luck with the challenge!
