Meryl Davis & Charlie White: Gold at Skate America 2013

Charlie White skates with Meryl Davis upside down during 2013 Skate America held at Joe Louis Arena on Saturday (October 19) and Sunday (October 20) in Detroit, Mich.

The two champion ice dancers, 26 and 25, took home the gold medal at the event with a total of 188.23 points.

“Being from Detroit, we can definitely feel that – that work ethic, that willingness to put yourself all-in to whatever you’re doing, whether it’s the auto industry or starting something new,” Meryl shared with the Washington Post.

She added, “While ice dancing is an artistic sport, it certainly has its nitty-gritty moments. Training isn’t all lipstick and sparkles every day.”

Congrats, Meryl and Charlie! 25+ pics inside…
