The Latest: All eyes on N. Koreans in pairs figure skating

PYEONGCHANG, South Korea (AP) — The Latest on the Pyeongchang Olympics (all times local):

The figure skating program at the Pyeongchang Olympics has resumed with the short program for the pairs competition, where the German pair of Aliona Savchenko and Bruno Massot are the favorites.

There will probably be just as many eyes on the North Koreans.

Security was a bit tighter at Gangneung Ice Arena on Wednesday than it was for the team event, most likely because of the presence of Ryom Tae Ok and Ju Sink. They were a strong third at last month's Four Continents and placed 15th at last year's world championships.
