Denis Petukhov shows off a hat he is proud of

Denis Petukhov, who partners with his wife Melissa Gregory in the ice dancing category of the Olympics, is a new American citizen. The two found each other on the Internet, when Melissa was searching for a dance partner. Denis flew to the US from Russia to practice with Melissa, then right away tore up his return ticket. Two weeks after meeting, sparks flew, and the couple is now married and Peukhov a citizen.
