Ladies Short - Start Order

64.30 for Lovely Laura! (3rd on TES, 2nd on PCS)

If she landed that 2A, her score would've been around 66-67 tops! But deserved to be in 2nd now!

Go Elene!

Laura scored 64.30 and gets 2nd place.

Even with the mistake Laura was wonderful. Ashame about the 2A

[MikiAndoFan#1]

Yep. Her Flip was clearly underroated and she is lucky she got away it in Vancouver. Guess luck doesn't strike twice.

Let's hope Rachael doesn't get downgraded on both her jumps, too.

Looks like Miki career might be over??? Her jumps are getting smaller and smaller and getting < alot.

Now it's up to Akiko to skate clean and make it to final flight and save 3rd spot!!

I don't know - I think Miki just needs to regroup for next season. I think it's possible she could be fine next year.

Poor Miki.

How did Carolina do? I thought I tuned in soon enough to see her, but if I did, I missed her because Universal Sports decided to go to the beginning of the earlier broadcast instead of showing the live stuff immediately.

Universal Sports tv broadcast started at 10:30 (30 minutes earlier) instead of the originally scheduled 11:00. They showed Ksenia Makarova, Myrianne Samson, and Carolina Kostner. Make sure to catch the broadcast repeats to see what you missed on 1st running, but remember to tune in 30 minutes earlier just in case.

Looks like Laura is ready for a fight for bronze. Marai and Rachel better step it up!

[prettykeys]

Good for Laura, too bad about the 2 axel, she moved across the ice so well. She is alittle like the Patrick Chan of the ladies skating. lol

figuristka LOL I was thinking the exact same thing!!! Well, Laura has a little more charisma and beauty, but as far as their skating goes...hahaha.

[sfgirl]

Okay how much of a pretty bonus Laura's gonna get to compensate for the 2A stepout?

Miki, the cameraman's got a skate fetish! Speaking of Miki... I do hope she eventually leaves Morozov (bring Javi and Oda with her) but he's got bewitching powers!

She is pretty, and so is Kiira.

[NorthernLite]

Bah. I missed Phaneuf earlier. Were all these others ahead of her really better?

[ARipp42014]

Splat for elene!

[wonderlen3000]

Yeah Eelen get the 3+3 in!!

[ARipp42014]

Bah. I missed Phaneuf earlier. Were all these others ahead of her really better?

Ksenia: yes (landed a 3T-3T)
Caro: hometown bonus
Laura: despite the 2A, yes
Mao: yes despite the downgrade

[mikiandorocks]

I'm so sorry for Miki! I just hope she can redeem herself in the FS.

Miki needs to reconstruct her technique like she did after the last olympics. Hope to see her next year. Hopefully she doesn't end her career on a down note.
