OMHolyG! You make it sound like Chan is a mid-tier skater compared to Jason Brown...
Chan is his two first Olympics cycles always deliverd when it counted. That’s what make great champions... Wolrd champions, Olympic medalists, junior world champions, GP final champions...

^^

Patrick Chan is an exceptional skater and an influential champion, but
he did not always deliver when it counted. He did not get in the medals at his first Olympics in Vancouver (he reportedly was feeling the pressure in his home country). Chan was certainly highly regarded and talented enough to win in that deep 2010 field but he stumbled (after unfortunately having experienced foot-in-mouth disease at 2009 Worlds in Los Angeles, a time when Chan should have been solidifying his rep with the judges and his talent advantage over the likes of challengers such as Evan Lysacek, U.S.'s favored 'can-do' wonder boy who was being pushed by his fed over the more naturally gifted but unfortunately self-conflicted Johnny Weir).
We all sadly remember what happened to Chan in Sochi 2014. The table was set with Hanyu having stumbled in his fp; and Chan was skating last.

Unfortunately, Chan's amazing power to put on a clinic abandoned him, while the error yips (which the judges previously tended to mostly forgive) took over, leaving Chan with silver served on a silver platter. With only one mistake, Chan still had a strong chance to win OGM; with two mistakes, it would have been a draw between him & Hanyu yet still an outside chance for Chan to prevail; but with three strikes, Chan was down and out.
It's not a real competition when the country that includes said poster's favorite skater(s) doesn't do well enough to either qualify for the event or make it to the final...
Eh, but it's figure skating
@Yazmeen. And them's the rules, no matter how unpopular, no matter how unfair.

Seriously, we can debate all day the fairness of regular competition wins under the current opportunity-limiting, country-based selection process.
Oh and yeah, I belatedly see you are being a bit sarcastic...
