Apolo's Daddy
Apolo's father has a played a very big part in Apolo's career.  Long before Apolo was born and after Yuki Ohno had studied accounting and thrown out numbers for a hair brush and a pair of scissors he became a hair stylist for the catwalk models in London.  Flying back and forth from the US to London, Yuki lived up the partying life a famous hairstylist could enjoy until little Apolo made his debut.  Yuki became a single father when Apolo was 1 after a divorce from Apolo's mother. Left with a 1 year old to raise on his own Yuki put an end to his partying lifestyle and took a second job to give Apolo the best life possible.  Through the years, although they had their disagreements, Apolo and his father are very close and without the influence and the push of Yuki who Apolo consisders part of his team now, Apolo wouldn't be were he is today!!!
What's In A Name
Yuki Ohno named his son Apolo......which as some may think comes from the sun God Apollo, but do not be fooled because its actual meaning is "to lead away from".  Lets explain,,,,,,,,Ap means 'to lead', Lo means 'away from', and the O connects them and you get APOLO!  Anton means pricless and all together now we have APOLO ANTON OHNO, a name that young Apolo made sure no one made fun of!!!
