The XV Olympic Winter Games
Introduced by Desmond Lynam Figure Skating
Today's men's short programme was expected to feature the battle between three world champions - ALEXANDER FADEEV of the USSR (1985), BRIAN BOITANO of USA (1986), and BRIAN ORSER of Canada (1987).
Orser, silver medallist in Sarajevo, must perfcrm well to satisfy the local crowd and pave the way for his strongest suit - the free skating - on Sunday.
