Apolo Speed Skater

At the age of 13 years, Apolo developed an interest in short-track speed skating after seeing the sport during the 1994 Olympics in Lillehammer. His father capitalized on this interest by driving him to short track competitions throughout the northwest United States and Canada and Apolo won several competitions in his age divisions. His father wanted to encourage him to develop his skills and, although Apolo was underage, in 1996 he got him admitted to the Lake Placid Olympic Training Center to train full-time for short track becoming the youngest skater to be admitted to the center.

At the 1999 World Junior Championships, Apolo won first overall, placing first in the 1000 m and 1500 m, and winning silver in the 500 m. and in 1999 he won his second senior U.S. national championship. He finished fourth overall at the 1999 World Championships and got a silver medal in the 500 m. At the 2000 U.S. Championships, he was not able to defend his title and finished third overall. At the 2000 World Championships, Apolo finished ninth overall. He won his first World Cup overall title in the 2000–2001 season, regained his National title, and finished second overall in the World Championships, losing to Chinese skater Li Jiajun.

Apolo Olympics

In December 2001, during the U.S. Short Track Speed Skating 2002 Olympic Trials, speed skater Shani Davis was racing for a position on the short track team. Apolo and fellow skater Rusty Smith had already acquired slots on the six-man team due to points received from initial races. In order for Davis to qualify, he had to place first in the final race—the 1000 m—by overcoming stronger skaters Apolo, Smith, and Ron Biondo. Since Apolo had been dominant in the meet to this point by winning every race he entered, a win by Davis seemed to be impossible

In the 2006 Winter Olympics in Turin, Italy, Apolo almost fell down during a semifinal heat in the 1500 m. Finishing fifth, he was not able to defend his 2002 gold medal in the event. Apolo was able to win the bronze medal in the 1000 m, with Korean skaters Ahn Hyun Soo and Lee Ho-suk finishing before him.

During the U.S. Olympic Trials held on September 8–12, 2009, in Marquette, Michigan, Apolo won the overall meet title and defended his national title. He won the finals during the 500 m, 1000 m, and 1500 m races. However, during the 1000 m time trial, he came in second to J. R. Celski despite skating a personal best of 1:24.500 to Celski’s personal best of 1:23.981. Celski, who finished second overall and was leading in points after the first two nights of the trials, got an injury during a crash in the semifinals of the 1000 m race when his right skate sliced into his left leg; he did not skate in the 1000 m finals.

Apolo Games

Apolo came out as the face of short-track speed skating among American fans, at the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. He was a medalist in two events but there was controversy associated with the results. After a disqualification in the 500 m race, he was leading the skaters in the 1000 m race. During a turn around the final corner, Apolo, Li Jiajun, Mathieu Turcotte as well as Ahn Hyun Soo all fell in a series of collisions. The last man standing was Steven Bradbury from Australia, who was trailing behind at the time, and skated through to win the gold medal, he became the first person from the southern hemisphere to win a gold medal at a Winter Olympics. Apolo quickly stood on his feet and crossed the finish line to win silver with Turcotte winning the bronze.
