Joey Cheek, the 2006 Olympic 500m champion, will make his NBC Olympic commentary debut with Tom Hammond covering speed skating in PyeongChang.
Cheek, 38, won three Olympic medals between two Winter Games — 1000m bronze in 2002 and 500m gold and 1000m silver in 2006.
After winning gold, Cheek donated his $25,000 prize money to the charitable organization Right to Play, which was founded by five-time speed skating gold medalist Johann Olav Koss of Norway.
Cheek would later donate another $15,000 after winning 1000m silver in Torino. It was Koss, who won three golds in three world records in 1994, who inspired Cheek to become a speed skater.
