I don’t know which makes me sadder.
Watching Kimmie Meissner or watching Emily Hughes.
Hughes, a Harvard sophomore, was painfully poor Friday and Saturday at the Bompart Trophy Grand Prix event in Paris. She finished 9th in a 10-woman field with only two highly-ranked skaters, reigning world champion Mao Asada of Japan and Joannie Rochette of Canada....
Asada made about 7 million mistakes – fall, popped jumps, 2-footed landings, high yuck level....
For what it is worth, Zhang stayed upright in both programs, the only one of the top five to do that.
Emily Hughes was in free fall.
