Tomas Verner is withdrawn, replaced by Pavel Kaska
OMGIs he injured??
That is to bad. I worry about Tomas. Ever since he caught that flu awhile back
he has not been himself. I hope he is not ill.
With Verner's withdrawal, Adam Rippon will now skate in one of the two final short program warm-up groups. Kaska slides in as the lowest-ranked skater to compete in the "later" session.
Ahh what happened? Unless he is injured i'm surprised he pulled out, even if he had a partial meltdown again he and Brezina's placements would likely add up to less than 28 and then next year Czech Republic would still have 2 spots for the men. Now I fear the Czechs will be lucky if they get two spots next year where Pavel is so unknown and his personal best FS score is only 115and if they only get one spot that most likely means we won't see Tomas at worlds next year either
. Poor Tomas

All Michal needs to do is finish in the top 10, which he's very capable of. All the skaters that dont reach the final (Kaska will likely be among them) receive 18 points anyways and you need 28 pts to secure the 2 spots.Ahh what happened? Now the Czechs will be lucky if they get two spots next year, likely they will only get one and that one spot will most likely go to Michal. Poor Tomas
Ohh ok. That's good news then. I thought it meant that if Michal was 10th, Kaska would have to be 18th or higher but this is more reassuring. Yeah, they should be fine. Any news on WHY Tomas withdrew though?
What happened?!
Yeah, Nirti, do you have the article announcing his withdrawal? His website doesn't say anything.
What happened?!
He's been taken off the ISU entry list.
Hmm. Maybe there will be articles tomorrow?
The skate orders have already been drawn?
The skaters are drawn in different groups on the basis of their ranking.
Like this
Kaska is ranked 66 and in the second half. Good for him and good luck. He can skate without pressure and surprise us. I am excited to see how he does
Sad and really wondering about Verner
Any reports on Adam since we haven't seen him at the Olys?
I am wondering if he now has a solid 3A.
