Five Time Olympic Medallist Tessa Virtue

Tessa Virtue skated into the hearts of people around the world when she became the youngest ice dance champion in Olympic history at the 2010 games alongside her on-ice partner, Scott Moir. The winner of three Olympic gold medals - and five Olympic medals in total - she is the most decorated female figure skater in Olympic history AND she knows all about the mental game of sport. Tessa shares what it was like entering a competitive sport at a young age, how her parents supported her, and if she ever wanted to quit (her answer may surprise you). We loved Tessa's insight on competitive sports and the takeaways from her personal experiences. Follow Tessa / tessavirtue17 .

Love how real she is talking about all the sacrifices of the sport. Makes me value and admired even more her career.

[@wilhelmina8843]

So glad Tessa is bringing her insight to more and more people through her work, interviews and speaking engagements.

[@aly8950]

Always nice to hear her talk

[@ipittipi]

Interesting conversation about children in sports. Kinda need Tessa's mom pov 😆. Also about visibility + what to do after retirement. Idk about bobsleigh/speed skater retirement plan tbh

[@susannearmstrong3424]

Cost is a huge factor

[@karenbatwood]

Tessa, such a beautiful woman - why pull hair back tight and parted in the middle like an old woman? Be young, let your hair flow. Blower you

[@karenbatwood]

Love you

It’s super chic. You’re behind the current styles 😂

[@TruthQuest1]

It looked good while she was skating, when she was younger, but as a person ages, it is not a good look

[@TruthQuest1]

​@@jac3271 It's "super chic" when one is younger, but as one ages, it is not a flattering look. Catch up on style girl

Not mispronouncing Moir in the first 10 seconds. Gurl.

[@NevilleKuss]

Tessa spoke highly of Scott and Tessa could keep the conversation under control and wasn't going to let the interview talk down to Scott .
They are truly best friends and still support each other .

[@TruthQuest1]

Gurl, you really have no room to criticize, since your grammar and grasp on language is not good. "Not mispronouncing"? 2 negatives produce a positive. Essentially what you said is "Pronouncing Moir in the first 10 seconds" 🤔
