2010 Worlds
1. Daisuke Takahashi
2. Brian Joubert
3. Patrick Chan
2010 Olympics
1. Daisuke Takahashi
2. Takahiko Kozuka
3. Evgeni Plushenko
(Johnny Weir in 4th, Evan Lysacek in 5th...I"ve talked about my placements here ad nauseam, so I'll refrain from writing a giant detailed opinion in this space unless someone really hasn't heard it before. Basically, though, Takahashi and Kozuka not only had the most technically difficult programs but were also FAR ahead of everyone else in terms of their overall presentation/artistry. Therefore, even with a fall they were still better than the rest. Lysacek is in 5th because, despite skating basically clean and doing all the required moves, his program was awful and his edge quality is below that of most every other top skater and there was hardly any emotion in his performance)
2009 Worlds
1. Evan Lysacek
2. Patrick Chan
3. Brian Joubert
2008 Worlds
1. Jeffrey Buttle
2. Brian Joubert
3. Daisuke Takahashi (was screwed over by his clean Triple Lutz being worth 0 points because of a really stupid rule)
2007 Worlds
1. Daisuke Takahashi
2. Brian Joubert
3. Stephane Lambiel (too bad he bombed in the SP...I rank him 1st in the LP)
2006 Worlds
1. Stephane Lambiel
2. Brian Joubert
3. Nobunari Oda
2006 Olympics
1. Evgeni Plushenko
2. Stephane Lambiel
3. Matt Savoie (best Transitions of the competition, soulful skating...ignored by the judges)
2005 Worlds
1. Stephane Lambiel
2. Jeffrey Buttle
3. Johnny Weir (so much better than Lysacek in the LP)
2004 Worlds
1. Evgeni Plushenko
2. Brian Joubert
3. Stefan Lindemann (he should have been 1st in the SP! That was an all-time great performance. Better choreography than Plushenko and one of the best Quad-Triple combinations ever)
2003 Worlds
1. Evgeni Plushenko
2. Timothy Goebel
3. Takeshi Honda

3. Michael Weiss
1999 Worlds
1. Alexei Yagudin
2. Evgeni Plushenko
3. Michael Weiss
(Also, Laurent Tobel deserved 6th in the LP. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzpT8vn4ZzQ . In terms of technical merit it's the best he has ever done! The only problem was underrotating the second 3Axel. I wanted to spotlight this performance since I do the same for his 1997 turn...I think the overall performance in 1997 is better but that giant hitchkick he adds here is cool!)
1998 Worlds
1. Alexei Yagudin
2. Todd Eldredge
3. Evgeni Plushenko

1. Ilia Kulik
2. Elvis Stojko
3. Philippe Candeloro
1997 Worlds
1. Elvis Stojko
2. Todd Eldredge
3. Viacheslav Zagorodniuk
(Laurent Tobel deserved to place 2nd in the LP. I'm so not kidding! It's one of the most hilarious competitive programs of all time and his jumping, with 7 Triples including a 3Axel-3Toe, was honestly the second best of the night considering the mistakes everyone else made. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6CcGLX5XMg)
