Adam Rippon and Jenna Johnson Are DANCING WITH THE STARS: ATHLETES Champions!  Image

After three weeks of stunning competitive dancing, the final three couples advanced to the finals of "Dancing with the Stars: Athletes," live on MONDAY, MAY 21 (8:00-9:00 p.m. EDT), on The ABC Television Network, streaming and on demand. It's been a very close race this season, and each and every couple stepped up to the plate and gave their all on the ballroom floor.

All 10 of the athletes reunited for a spectacular dance number. As for the three finalist couples, each performed two dances. The first round was inspired by their journey on the show, and each couple performed a jazz, foxtrot or Viennese waltz routine. The second round was a no-holds-barred freestyle dance. At the end of the night, based on "last chance" live viewer votes in the EDT/CDT time zones via ABC.com and Facebook, as well as the judges' scores and last week's viewer votes, one couple was crowned the champion, culminating an incredible season, and took home the special Athletes Mirrorball trophy.

Each couple danced to the following songs (in alphabetical order):

Adam Rippon and Jenna Johnson - Jazz - "Anything You Can Do" from "Annie Get Your Gun" - The new Broadway cast recording

Josh Norman and Sharna Burgess - Foxtrot - "Conqueror" by "Empire" cast, featuring Estelle and Jussie Smollett

Tonya Harding and Sasha Farber - Viennese Waltz - "The Time of My Life" by David Cook

Each couple danced freestyle to the following songs (in alphabetical order):

Adam Rippon and Jenna Johnson - "Scooby Doo Pa Pa" by DJ Kass

Josh Norman and Sharna Burgess - "Walk on Water" by Thirty Seconds to Mars

Tonya Harding and Sasha Farber - "Hush Hush; Hush Hush" by The Pussycat Dolls
