Read the full NTSB narrative

The pilot stated that while on final approach, he was instructed to go-around by the air traffic controller. He applied full engine power and noticed that he had a nose up attitude. He immediately lowered the nose. The airplane yawed to the left and he attempted to correct the yaw by applying right aileron and right rudder. The airplane dropped abruptly and hit the runway, causing the nose landing gear to collapse. The airplane then skidded off the runway and nosed over.
