United States Vice President Mike Pence will lead the U.S. delegation at next month's 2018 Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang, South Korea.
According to NBC Olympic Talk, Pence will be joined by his wife, Karen Pence, for the opening ceremony on Feb. 9.
The United States deviated from tradition at the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi, Russia, as it was the first Olympics since the 2000 Sydney Games at which a sitting or former president, vice president or first lady was not part of the delegation, per NBC Olympic Talk.
Instead, the U.S. sent openly gay athletes Billie Jean King, Brian Boitano and Caitlin Cahow in addition to legendary Winter Olympians Eric Heiden and Bonnie Blair.
