I'm not writing this to be cruel to Michelle Kwan, who I admire so much. However, in light of her unfortunate withdrawal from the Olympics, will this mark the end of her eligible skating career?
Michelle may go home to California, recover from her injury, and then turn pro and skate with SOI, other shows, television specials, or perhaps even start her own skating tour. I could certainly see Michelle starring in her own TV specials, as Kristi Yamaguchi has done so successfully over the years.
Michelle may go home to California, recover from her injury, and then retain her eligible status. She may show up at next year's US Nationals to see how she fares, at the age of 26. If she wins the title or just qualifies for the World Team, she may decide to continue on. It may be a "one year at a time" scenario for Michelle. She will be 29 in 2010, which is a rather advanced age for an elite figure skater, but perhaps Michelle will keep herself in top shape and continue on.
What do you think? Michelle has a lot of soul searching to do, that's for sure. I wish her the very best in whatever she chooses to do
