Finally the US men couldn't manage two spots!
seems like the competition is stiff for the ladies,
with elizaveta, polina agafonova, christina gao, felicica zhang, yretha silete, yukiko fujiasawa, kexin zhang,
yukiko and polina fighting to get in to the final, and elizavetha, christina, kexin and yretha fighting to stay in.
Anna Ovcharova may be replacing Polina Agafonova here. I've heard that if she is better by then, she will attend the last 2 GP events. But she is a strong skater as well so it really doesn't lighten the field any if she does skate here, in fact it may make it even deeper as Anna has shown us last season that when she is "on" she is tough to beat.
Personally, I really doubt Fujisawa or Agafonova will make the JGPF. There are just too many other girls who have already medaled. Sotnikova, Shelepen, Shoji, Tuktamysheva, and Gao I'd say are all shoo-ins for the final, so that leaves only 3 spots which are likely to be filled by any combination of Baga, Wang, Ovcharova, Gong, Li, Zhang.
why they didnt give a second grand prix to agafanova!? she didnt make that bad in the previous gp and she medaled at worlds last year, how she wil gain experience??
