This. I don't GET it. Gracie is one of the most GIFTED skaters I've ever seen; she gets great scores for just phoning it in- but WHAT is going on? The bombing is one thing, but I don't see any fight. Really frustrating to me. Great for Polina- she's really fought through her struggles. Proud of her.
Jackie Wong, who is very knowledgeable in skating (he was the one who figured out why S/H's spin was invalidated), live tweeted 4CC, and here's what he said about Li's program:

I did see hooks personally.
That depends. Are you putting rum in it ?
Repeat after me: The ladies fail to deliver when the men step up and vice versa.
I love Miyahara's skating skills, but to be very honest, her jumps are not jumps to my eyes (with the exception of 2A+3T maybe). They look as if she's spinning 1 inch above the ice.
At least Li's jumps have height and distance...
Some funny GIFs I posted elsewhere:

I still say Gracie needs to go back to her Russian coach for her jumps. And get someone else to do her choreography too. That LP is whack.
Some of her jumps should have been called UR.I am sorry why in the world would people want Satoko off the podium she did enough for her medal
Good points, but Jackie Wong is female, just FYI
Miyahara's jumps don't even count as jumps. They're like hops.
Li's jumps are quite beautiful. She lands them with such lightness and softness, albeit they're all wonky landings.
Hahahaha her face when she found the candy
I wonder if her foot is still bothering her?
