Viktor Ahn wants to skate at Pyeongchang 2018 Olympics

Russian short track speed skater Viktor Ahn wants to compete in one more Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang in his birth nation in 2018, according to Russian media.

Ahn, 29, said he would probably decide in 2015 or 2016 if he would strive for a third Olympics in 2018 and that it would be dependent on his health.

Ahn was the most decorated male athlete at the Sochi 2014 Winter Games, winning three gold medals and one bronze. He also won three golds and one bronze for South Korea at Torino 2006 before switching to Russia.
