Maybe Tomas is not 100% fit - or maybe he needs a break. I mean how meltdowns can he have in a season without losing confidence......

He "wasn't in form to compete with the best" aka he got his ego bruised at the Olympics when he finished lower than he did 4 years ago and was badly beaten by Michal Brezina for the third time this season. Still better than Pavel though, Tomas bombed at nationals and finished 2nd, Pavel was 4th. All skaters who don't make the FS get 18 points, so as long as Michal places 10th or higher (which he is more than capable of) Czech Republic will get 2 spots for men next year.

Thanks silverlake22

**janetfan** · 03-24-2010, 10:32 AM

So the other Russian skater needs a top 10 finish or they only get one guy next year?

**TCAngel18** · 03-24-2010, 10:32 AM

Top ten? That was always gonna be a challenge. Right now he's fifteen points back where the 10th skater (in the top ten) will be, at least, so I doubt it. But if he moves into the top fifteen, that'll be noteworthy.

Yeah. Top 10 will only happen if there's a major splatfest. I think it probably more realistic for him to get into the top 15 and better his last appearance (in 2007).

But miracles and SOYL can totally happen, so I'm hoping that for Ryan!

And he's only #3 by default, which puts you at an even greater disadvantage!

He just decided to end his season and thought wasnt ready for it. A good decision IMO. He must completely leave behind this horrible season and get a new coach and get some psychological help.

**Bennett** · 03-24-2010, 10:34 AM

I'm so sad that Tomas is not here. I didn't even watch his Olympics because they went bad. TV didn't broadcast them and I did not try to locate. I was hoping that he bounces back at Worlds and that I would see him do well. I am sad. But I hope he takes needed time to rest and comes back with a refreshed mind. He is a great crowd pleaser and I am sure that he can make a great show skater anyway.

http://www.justin.tv/sklives#r=ZYyJCU8~ but theyre showing pairs short now because of a warmup i think....

I'm confused. I thought the requirement was a combined total of 23 from both skaters? Otherwise, Korea would have gotten 3 spots for ladies right?

Confused!!! D:

TCAngel18: THANK YOU! Haha showing pairs now that it's zamboni break.
