No, based on the fact that she has horrid jumping technique. I feel like her technique may get the best of her unless she completely fixes it.
What worries me most about Ashley is that she really filled out compared to the last two seasons (and her body already looked pretty mature back then too), and her jumps seem to be lower than in the past. She was never a particularly fast rotator in the air, but now she's not getting the height either. I remember her (f)lutz used to be quite high -- this time it was clearly under-rotated, she was really lucky not to be downgraded, and of course it's still a flutz. But in fact, her flip was also short on rotation and would've probably been downgraded by a stricter tech panel, like the one at SA. Even the 2A was slightly under-rotated, though maybe not more than 1/2 turn..

At 24, there's a tiebreaker with Miki over who earned the highest total score in the 2 events.
Probably why because they cheated for her and Mirai at Skate America and ripped Caroline Zhang.

1) they aren't going to judge you fair and square. They are always going to call yours underroated because your are of Chinese descent and have not ties to Canada
I based Suguri lock on her many podium getting past performances, and she seems to be very much on a roll here. I just think Kostner needs some luck which usually comes to her when least expected. Not good reasons, I know but not much else to go on. While I would love to see an Amercian lady in the Finals, Flatt did not rise to the occasion in SA, and Wagner has yet to prove herself dependable. These thoughts are not meant to be demeaning. If they do not make the Finals, it would still be nice if they put out strong performances and Czisny Too.Joe, I agree about NHK, but nothing's locked at COR. If it were, Kostner wouldn't be coming into this one with a 4th only.
