wow. I forgot how hard it is to do portraits on here. I really struggled with this one.
I personally think Apolo would be cuter without his soul patch. What do you think?

Very nice puzzle, I enjoyed doing it. I was able to figure out the subject about 2/3s of the way through. The feature you mention is what helped me recognize it early. Not sure how I'd feel about it not being there.

Yeah! Telly is back! Extraordinary not too big puzzles!
Thanks for your entry!
PS. I totally agree with Martin.

thanks Jota and Martin. :)
Oh, and I forgot to add my chant..."U S A, U S A!"

Great job. Ditto the others. Welcome back.

Welcome back Telly

as far as the chant go don't forget that both Joannie Rochette and Cynthia Phaneuf can win women figure skating and Clara Hudges is the favorite in speed skating on the women side so I'll continue with a great big He O'Canada Go!


lol

:)
thanks monkeyboy and qwerty

Am I allowed to chant: Germany!

sorry... ;-)

Here's my chant: Telly! Telly! I am just delighted to see you creating again. I hope this means you will grace us with more of your wonderful creations. This puzzle was excellent, both in terms of solving experience and image.

thanks so much Teresa.
and yes Kai, you're allowed to chant...but do it on your own puzzle...J/K!!! :) lol

woo hoo! He would definitely be cuter without the soul patch (never knew it had a name), but would he still be Apolo?

Apolo was twittering a little fan Q&A today. No, he didn't get to my question, but I thought I'd share this one on this forum:

Q: what up with your facial hair?

A: Honestly...it's the only way/shape of facial hair I grow I know..it prob looks funny but it's all I've got! :^

You've got to live with what you have right?

lol, funny

I enjoyed this puzzle. What the heck is a "soul patch"? Or is that what people call a goatee nowdays?

A soul patch is just the narrow strip of hair on the chin, like Ohno has. A goatee covers the entire chin and usually connects to the mustache.

great job
it totally looks like him

thanks bugaboo
