Simon Briggs technical specialist - isn't he the coach of Natasha McKay?
Interesting question, @Andrea82 or somebody else with knowledge. Could he judge women competition in which Natasha is in?
Yes, he is.
He was the TS for Men earlier today too. He called Women competition at Lombardia Trophy last week.
Judging a competition in which McKay is in could be in conflict with the ISU Code of Ethics (potential conflict on interests). Even if IIRC I once saw a B event in which the technical specialist choreographed the program of one of the competitors finishing almost at the bottom of the standings.
However, he can theoretically serving in panels for events in which McKay's "indirect" "rivals" are skating. And it happened in the past, for instance, situations like technical specialist X is relative of US Skater Y and serves at TS at Europeans (or relative of Euro skater Y and serves at TS at 4CCs). At Euros (or 4CCs) there were skaters who were more or less at the same levels of the TS's relative/pupil and their result there could have helped (or not) boosting their reputation (yes, I know, it shouldn't matter....).
