Additional judges draw done to replace judges who withdrew. The additional draw is done "out of a pool of ISU Members, already drawn and having named Judges in any of the other disciplines for the Olympic Winter Games and willing to serve in the discipline in question as their second event"
Japan Ice Dance judge was missing from the list posted yesterday. No change in the individual event (just less turnover of judges between RD and Free Dance). Russia will get their judging spot in the Team Event ID panel
Czech Republic send only 2 judges (for Men and Women) and withdrew from Pair panel (even if it is allowed for one judge to serve in 2 panels at OG). Belarus get their place there. USA gets their place in the Team Event Pair panel. As the Czech "pair judge" was also set to judge Women in Team Event, Canada will replace them there
Dance panel is the same of Worlds 2021 and Sochi 2014
Billow-Jakupcvevic-Kelly were the panel at 2021 Internatiounaux de France
Billow-Vandecavye-Galambos were the panel for Women at 2021 Worlds. With Bianchetti as referee.
