Todd Eldredge is one of the most popular and richest Figure Skater who was born on August 28, 1971 in Chatham, United States. Todd James Eldredge (born August 28th in 1971) is an American former figure skater who competed in the past. He was an year 1996 World champion, and a seven-time U.S. national champion (1990 1991, 1990, 1995, 1997 1998, 2002) and a three- time Olympian (1992 1998 2002) as well as a 6-time World medalist.
In the 1996-97 season, Eldredge began his season with a bang, easily defeating Alexei Urmanov (who also skated smoothly) to be the winner of Skate America. Eldredge was controversially eliminated from his place in the Grand Prix final to Elvis Stojko who made the first quadruple-triple combo ever however, he also made a few mistakes which included a fall on his third triple axel. Eldredge skated with a neat and more complete routine, however, he was hampered by the scoring in the home country of the competition in Canada. He was able to regain his U.S title without difficulty, in the absence of the current champion Rudy Galindo, who was now a professional. In the World Championships Eldredge skated a amazing short program, however due to his very quick draw, he came in 2nd behind Alexei Urmanov who skated near the end. The top six competitors were perfect with triple axel and triple toe combinations. Elvis Stojko though came from 4th place to claim the gold medal after an unbeatable long run with a quadruple triple combination. Eldredge started by singles, but failed on his second triple axel which sealed his fate and he did not possess a quadruple leap start with.
Eldredge continued to compete in pro ams and leave the door open for a return to amateur figure skating. In 2000, he landed his first quadruple jump in competition at the Masters of Figure Skating. He competed in various events through the 1999-2000 season, yet oddly did not skate at the World Championships. Eldredge withdrew from the 2001 Four Continents Championships due to an ankle injury. He returned to the U.S Championships for the first time since 1998, and took silver behind Tim Goebel, but then edged Goebel for the bronze at the World Championships where most felt he deserved silver over an injured and flawed Alexei Yagudin. In 2002, he won his sixth U.S. title and placed sixth in his third Olympic appearance. After retiring from competition, he toured with Stars on Ice.
Eldredge was born in Chatham, Massachusetts. He married Megan McCrea on September 3, 2005, in St. Petersburg, Florida. In 2008, he moved to Florida. In March 2009, Todd said he was divorced. Eldredge married Sabrina Corbaci on September 28, 2012, in San Diego, California. Corbaci is a graphic designer and two-time (1991, 1992) U.S. novice pairs medalist with Eddy Zeidler. They have two sons — Ayrton, born May 26, 2012, and Ryder, born in 2004.
Eldredge struggled for the next two seasons, finishing sixth during the 1993 U.S. Championships and fourth in 1994. He also was not chosen to compete in the 1994 Olympics. Eldredge picked up his form in the 1994-95 season, winning gold in the 1994 Goodwill Games and gold at the 1994 Skate America and the 1994 NHK Trophy. Then, he took home three national titles, and gold at the 1995 World Championships. The following year, the athlete walked away with a silver medal in the U.S. Championships but won gold at the 1996 World Championships.

Later, he trained in the Detroit Skating Club in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan and at the Onyx in Rochester Hills, Michigan. He was awarded bronze at 1987’s World Junior Championships and then gold in 1988. He was awarded silver at 1988’s Skate America.
The 1989-1990 seasons, Eldredge won his first senior national title. He also was selected for the 1990 World Championships, where Eldredge placed fifth. In the following year Eldredge was a repeat national champion, and later won silver at the 1991 World Championships. While Eldredge was not able to compete in his chance to compete at the 1992 U.S. Championships, Eldredge was chosen as a representative for his country in the U.S. at the 1992 Winter Olympics. Eldredge placed tenth at Albertville and then 7th in the 1992 World Championships.
In the pivotal year of his career in 1997-1998, Eldredge suffered through a sluggish grand prix circuit. First winning Skate America with an uninspiring skate, after injuring himself in warm up. Then placing only 4th at Trophee Lalique, won by rising start Alexei Yagudin. He controversially finished 3rd at the Grand Prix final where most believed he deserved at least 2nd place above Elvis Stojko. He skated cleanly, apart from a doubled triple loop, and strangely lost to Stojko who fell on his quadruple attempt. He then finished fourth at his second Olympics, in Nagano, after a crushing long program performance, managing only 5 of 8 planned triples, when a clean skate would have garnered him at least silver comfortably. He rebounded to win silver at a watered down World Championships in his home country, an event missing all 3 Olympic medalists. A fall in the short program cost him the gold to rising star Alexei Yagudin, despite comfortably winning the long program with a strong skate.
