Lovely program from Kostner. The title is hers!!

[Serious Business]

Akiko would need to crack 130 to overtake Carolina, it ain't happening.

[coolboogie22]

Carolina is way overscore, where is the triple lutz, NO WAY!!!
Go Akiko win this title

[Nadine]

OMG, YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! !!!!!!!!!!!! THEY GIVE IT TO HER!!!! I COULDN'T BE HAPPIER, *THIS* IS THE TYPE OF WORLD CHAMPION THERE SHOULD BE!!!!

[DobrinFan]

Wow, Carolina was the best for me. Line, jumps, presence!!!!! Way to go girl!!!!

[Jammers]

Shouldn't a Ladies champion do the triple lutz though. The men are now doing quads again but the ladies champion will have won with watered down content. Champions should do the hard jumps to if they are true champions.

[museksk8r]

Akiko is on so far; she is really fighting!

[lavender]

I'm just glad Caroline is in first but if Akiko bring and win awesome because I love her too.

I'm ok with the result mainly because she won it on TES

[Tonichelle]

I think Ashley's off the podium such a bummer.

[Kissx3]

Akiko will medal.
