So wait, I'm actually really confused about Javi... is he retiring? Is he just doing JO and Euros?
I think Javi will be doing Euro's - but no World's

Kaetlyn is with IMG, which I believe people have said is the agency involved in Japan Open. Of course she has the tour, so she wasn't available this year. I don't know if she was with them last year or not. http://www.northernpen.ca/sports/ot...medal-drawing-attention-from-sponsors-203942/
... if i were an event organizer, I would have the common sense to invite Gabby who is extremely marketable with a bronze medal earned at 2017 worlds as well as team gold in PC... something Bradie may achieve at one point, or may not.
They should invite Donovan Carrillo for team North America.
Gabby competed at her fourth Worlds before winning a medal; at her first Worlds she was 21st. At her fifth and most recent Worlds she was 7th.
Her highest finish in the individual Olympics was 15th in 2018; she was 17th in 2014.
She has competed in 8 GP events and has never won a medal.
Bottom line: When Gabby is at her best, she is very, very good. But she is also very inconsistent so we don't see her at her best every time out.
Bradie was competing in her first senior season this year.
She competed in her first GP event and won a bronze medal.
She competed in her first individual Olympics and finished in the top 10; she won bronze in the team event.
She competed at her first Worlds and finished 6th.
Bradie was new on the scene this year and she showed nerves for the first time at the Olympics. But at Worlds she went back to her usual unruffled consistent self.

Daleman VS Tennell = Ex-aequo
i will take inconsistent Gabby anytime over Bradie at her best... YMMV
Funny how some remember Bradie's OT Bronze while conveniently forgetting to mention, Gabby's OT Gold. This forgetfulness while throwing shade towards yet another Canadian woman, continues.
Olympic Team Gold + Bronze at Worlds > Olympic Team Bronze
Canadians don't really do Japan Open, do they? They get pushed to do Challenger Series events so they can get feedback and tweak programs.

Well everyone can have his own criteria. Yours are medals, mine are differents.

Who cares how many years it took Gabby to get a World medal.. it took Javier 7 seasons to medal at Worlds; at his first Worlds he was 35th.
What are these criteria of yours, that would lead you to suggest that Daleman vs Tennell is ex aequo?
