Ladies - LP

[snowflake]

Vicky that was good!!! All jumps except one flip became a double. Solid and well performed

[skatemom1122]

Well, Mao should be able to win this. Mirai has a good chance too. 126 at the olympics.

[janetfan]

I see Mirai and Laura battling for the bronze. The question is - will the Euro bonus be worth more than the American bonus

[miki88]

130? Is this score system relative to the one at the Olympics? Because I remember Yuna only scoring 133~~ with far better performances.

[ryoko]

Not Mirai's???

[NorthernLite]

goes to show that Joannie made the right choice to not come to worlds! Joannie wouldn't even have gotten the breaks the judges give Yuna!

But also sad to think how JoRo might've done here if she hadn't been dealing with all that other stuff.

And yeah, YuNa's score - other skaters would give anything for a 130, let alone that with two falls.

[mikiandorocks]

Viktoria smashed her PB and is 3rd at the moment.

[figuristka]

wow great marks for Viktoria, go Cynthia get a pb too.

[MikiAndoFan#1]

OMG! Viktoria ahead of Akiko!

[SamuraiKike]

Very good for Viktoria, I hope she stays top 10 and gets 2 spots for Sweden , then both Helgesson sisters can compete next year.

[Fruit Loops]

The crazy thing is that it's not outside the realm of possibility that Kim will still actually win. What the hell is going on? She should not win worlds skating like she did.

I agree. Yuna may be the class of the field but something's not right when an incredilbly flawed (for her) program still garners marks that are nigh unreachable but by one or two other skaters. Mao and Joannie have to have lights-out programs to get into the 130s and Yuna can stumble her way there?

I love Yuna but I do think there are skaters who can compete with her. Ah well.

Go Cynthia!

Andrea Joyce just called Cynthia "Cynthany."

[janetfan]

But also sad to think how JoRo might've done here if she hadn't been dealing with all that other stuff.

And yeah, YuNa's score - other skaters would give anything for a 130, let alone that with two falls.

What were you watching? Yuna had one fall - but did pop her 2A - but she skated very well IMO

this is why i'm confused over the scores i see :D

[silverlake22]

silverlake22, who will win the 2014 Olympics?

My predictions:

1.) Elizaveta Tuktamysheva (hooray Russia!)
2.) Mirai Nagasu
3.) Christina Gao (she finishes 3rd a lot)
4.) Mao Asada (just past her prime, just like Fumie in 2006)
5.) Anna Ovcharova (she finishes 5th a lot)
6.) Kanako Murakami
7.) Adelina Sotnikova
8.) Min-Jung Kwak
9.) Ashley Wagner
10.) Laura Lepisto

Yuna, Miki, Joannie will all be retired. Polina Shelepen will be 5'8" and pull a Kostner, Polina Agafonova will switch to pairs and medal in the pairs event.
