How come they don't have a substitute skater to go to the event, just in case? It seems like esp in the ladies field, there have been several GPs with only 8 or 9 ladies. Do they even ask another lady if she's willing to come and compete, even if on short notice?
Or is it the host thinking "cool, our 3 ladies will have a better result with less other skaters!"? ;)

The ISU's warm-up group info seems to be wrong. Did I just see Gracie out there warming up in the first group?

Nevermind, it was Courtney Hicks.

The combo was on the first jump. Too bad about the fall on the 3F, though. I thought she was charming.

This program was really refined and mature, liked her! :clap: Shame for the fall, but the 3Lo+2T and the 2A were excellent :yes:

Courtney needs to hold her head up better...but if she polished that program and her skating skills...she might just make the Olympic team.

Electric blue strapless dress, with sparkle "wave" on body. No stirrup tights this time

3F+2T - clean, but the curve was too "round" for a +3T

One/two mistakes, her base value is going to take a big hit.

SP: 26.67+24.03 = 50.70, in 2nd (out of 2)
