Amber Glenn

In May 2014, U.S. Figure Skating named Glenn as the recipient of the 2014 Athlete Alumni Ambassador (3A) overall award.[10] In August, she won bronze at the 2014 JGP in France. She finished sixth at her second JGP assignment, in Estonia, and 13th on the senior level at the 2015 U.S. Championships.

Glenn began the 2015–2016 season training in McKinney, Texas under Ann Brumbaugh and Ben Shroats.[11] After placing fifth at the 2015 JGP in Latvia and sixth on the senior level at the 2015 Skate Canada Autumn Classic in mid-October, she decided to take a break to "reevaluate".[2] She resumed training in February 2016 after joining Peter Cain and Darlene Cain in Euless, Texas.[2]

Glenn placed fifth at the 2016 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, fourth at the 2016 CS Golden Spin of Zagreb, and eighth at the 2017 U.S. Championships. She was selected to compete at the 2017 World Junior Championships but withdrew in early March.[12]

Glenn finished eighth at the 2017 CS Lombardia Trophy. She was invited to compete at her first Grand Prix event, the 2017 Cup of China, after the withdrawal of Gracie Gold.[13] She placed tenth in China, and finished the season with a second consecutive eighth-place at the 2018 U.S. Championships.

Glenn was sixth at the 2018 CS Lombardia Trophy, and seventh at the 2019 U.S. Championships.

Competing on the Challenger series again at the start of the 2019–2020 season, Glenn won the bronze medal at the 2019 CS U.S. Classic. This was her first senior international medal. Assigned to two Grand Prix events, she placed seventh at the 2019 Skate America and sixth at the 2019 Cup of China.[14] She was fourth in the short program at the 2020 U.S. Championships with a clean skate and, remarking on her then-recent coming out, said it "has brought a weight off my shoulders. It was very scary, and not having to pretend I’m someone I’m not anymore.[15] She dropped to fifth place after the free skate, and said further mental preparation was needed.[16] Glenn finished ninth at the 2020 Four Continents Championships, her first senior ISU championship assignment.[17]

The coronavirus pandemic prompted a multi-month hiatus from training, after which Glenn began working on mastering the triple Axel, which she had been attempting "for fun" periodically for nine years by that point. She missed an early virtual competition due to fracturing her orbital bone after passing out cryotherapy, but then attempted the triple Axel for the first time in competition during a later virtual domestic event, singling it.[18]

With the pandemic restricting international travel, the ISU opted to conduct the Grand Prix assignments based mainly on training location. Glenn was assigned to compete at the 2020 Skate America.[19] She placed fifth in the Skate America short program after having to execute a turn in between her triple-triple jump combination.[20] She was sixth in the free skate, remaining in fifth place overall.[21]

Glenn attempted her triple Axel in the short program at the 2021 U.S. Championships, but was unable to successfully land it.[22] Her otherwise strong performances earned her her highest-ever placement at the event and first senior national medal, a silver. She expressed that she was "happy to finally put out a performance I'm proud of." Glenn revealed that she had been suffering from a foot infection that had spread up to the knee, and begun a course of antibiotics on the day of the free skate.[23]

Despite her silver medal, U.S. Figure Skating opted to name bronze medalist Karen Chen, who had finished 0.35 points behind Glenn, alongside champion Bradie Tennell to the 2021 World Championships team.[24] It was the first time since 2008, when Katrina Hacker was bypassed in favor of Kimmie Meissner, that the selected ladies team in a non-Olympic year did not follow Nationals placements (for age-eligible skaters). Glenn was instead named first alternate.[25] She had previously said, when asked about the prospect of the World team, "US Figure Skating should go with a team that they know will go and get those three spots back. Whether that includes me or not, I’m all for it either way."[23]
