I don't give a chance to Murakami to win or finish in second place.Probably Satoko and Gracie will be on top 2, at this point numbers are really important.But I am thinking on a different scenario : if Polina can find a place herself between Satoko and Gracie that means Ashley and winner of NHK can pack their bags to Barcelona.

Time for Gold to step up. At the very least she shouldn't finish any lower then 2nd but its time to finally win something. She has no reason not to make the GPF this season and if she doesn't it's going to be hard for the judges to keep giving her good scores even when she fecks up. She got 179 points at SA for 2 mistake filled programs so she should be able to get 185 points if she is fairly clean.

*If S\K finish one spot above B\K they would need a difference of 10.41 to win a tie breaker.

--Coomes/Buckland would have to finish at least 2nd. If Weaver/Poje nabs a spot, there's only one spot left. And two bronzes would not be enough to beat Ilinykh/Zhigansin (2nd/4th) because they would lose the placement tiebreaker. Actually, they would oddly be rooting for S/K to be second (but not with that score).

Given this season, thus far, nothing seems guaranteed any more! HAHA.

I think Edmunds will be deliberately held down in the SP so that Gold can have the better chance. She has no chance to win. You can forget that scenario.

i get what you mean. Gracie definitely has more chances than Polina, since she has the bronze at SA at least.
