The photo in the tweet is different from the one shown in the Skate Canada article.
ETA, lovely observation from the thread for Nebelhorn (where Tran and Takahashi skated their SPs back to back with their respective new partners):
I'm watching the ISU stream and I clearly heard Mervin say very loudly to Narumi "Good Luck".
I think that's very good sportsmanship, not that I ever thought he didn't have any, but wow.
