Apolo Anton Ohno knows what awaits him as he attempts to careen into U.S. Olympic history. “Tomorrow is going to b caaraazzzy! Can u dig it?” the short-track speedskater tweeted before practice Friday at Pacific Coliseum. Ohno resumes his quest for a seventh career Olympic medal in today’s 1,000 meters. A victory would break his six-medal tie with long- track speedskater Bonnie Blair as the most decorated American Winter Olympian. First, though, Ohno has to get to the final. He’ll have to survive quarterfinal and semifinal rounds to earn a shot at his second medal of these Games. He already won a silver in the 1,500. It won’t be easy. Aside from the usual thrills and spills that make short track so unpredictable, Ohno is facing his biggest rivals — the powerful South Koreans.
