So like many of you I was absolutely shocked and devastated when Mao bombed the SP completely... she was at a loss of words too:
"My timing was off. I couldn't move the way I wanted to out there. The moment after the Axel, I knew something wasn't right. I couldn't do what I visualised," said Asada, whose score was nearly 17 points off her season best.
"I lost the fight within me. It was all mental."
"I didn't skate anywhere near as well as I could. I don't know what to make of this now. All I can do is give it everything I have tomorrow. I can't comprehend any of this,"
"I couldn't do any of the things I've been working on in training. Once I started the programme, I couldn't control my emotions and my body. My only option is to skate the free to the best of my ability."

I just hope Mao can just have the skate of her life tomorrow and end the Olympics on a high note. Like I was saying in another thread, if Mao can score 150+ and the top 3 score below 130 then Mao can still win the OGM !
Praying to the skating gods tonight..
