Mone Chiba has achieved 4th place in women's figure skating at the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, marking a personal triumph by executing a series of consecutive triple jumps that dispelled prior negative experiences. During her performance, she successfully tackled a difficult combination of jumps that had previously hampered her at the Grand Prix Final, demonstrating significant improvement and resilience under pressure. Chiba reflected that she vowed to learn from her past mistakes to avoid similar falls in the future.

This being her first Olympic competition at the age of 20, Chiba had set high expectations for herself, successfully completing her short program in 4th place, hinting at the possibility of a medal. The tension of the moment was palpable, yet she pushed through her previous fears associated with the difficult jumps and managed to maintain her composure. Notably, she performed to the same music, "Romeo and Juliet," that Yuzuru Hanyu skated to during his Olympic debut, an experience that had left a lasting impression on her.

Chiba finished her free skate with a score of 143.88, which nearly matched her personal best, showcasing her ability to rise to the occasion amidst the competitive environment. Though she ultimately fell to 4th place after the top three competitors from the short program skated, her performance solidified her standing as a promising athlete with the potential for future successes in international competitions. Her experience at the Olympics has enriched her perspective on competitive spirit and personal growth in figure skating.
