Figure skating at the 1924 Winter Olympics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The three figure skating events held at the 1924 Winter Olympics were not the first figure skating events contested at the Olympic Games, as the sport had also been on the programme at the 1908 and 1920 Summer Olympics. Gillis Grafström successfully defended his 1920 title.
