USA short tracker JR Celski has said that there is no pressure on him despite being the only American who can still win a men's individual speed skating medal at the Winter Olympic Games in Sochi.
Celski advanced to the quarter-finals of the speed skating 500m on Tuesday, but Eddy Alvarez and Jordan Malone could not make it out of the preliminary rounds.
"I kind of just held my ground and made it through. I'm just going to go out there and skate," Celski told reporters.
Emery Lehman and Patrick Meek finished out of the medals in the 10,000m event.
