He is 7 now...so 19? Only the first 18 qualify directly?
Russia is host so it qualifies. For 2014 worlds maybe no Russian man until a qualifying competition.

So I guess Russia won't get two spots for the next year..Does this mean Evgeni will have to go to a qualifying competition in the autumn, or the fact that Kovtun qualified for the long is enough? Btw, why do people dislike Kovtun so much...without the quad, Menshov score would have been the same....

I don't know if this is the right place to ask this...but do you have any idea why is Gachinski doing so poorly? How is it possible for a skater to lose almost all his jumps in a few months?
It may seem like faint praise, but I actually enjoyed Max's skate better than I did at Nationals. I'm certain that winning there must have given him a confidence boost in his training and approach to this competition.
I actually liked Kovtun fine, the combination excepted, of course. What a terrible burden to place on such a young and relatively inexperienced skater. Someone is to blame for doing that... and it's not the boy.
Song executed his elements to the absolute minimum standard. Really poor; I'm surprised he's in 2nd.
Now THERE's a fascinating possibility. Plushenko returns in Sochi, wins the gold, and yet Russia is unable to send any man to World's. Crazy.
why did max skate so early?

Max was just flying across the ice today, he represented the US really well, and i'm really glad that he got the score that he did. I enjoyed that SP more than i thought I would...crossing my fingers that he continues to develop artistically...there's a lot to be desired, but considering how candid he is about his lack of artistry and his competitive drive, i'm sure he'll eventually get it figured out.
Looking at Ge's PCS now.
Funny how skating a totally empty program ending with a crazy, intense, Plushenko-like step sequence can give you 7s. It's like it's the only thing the judges end up remembering.
