2025 U S.Nationals Senior Women's Short Program

[Weathergal]

Don't give up Amber - you can have a great FS!

 

[moonvine]

She can come back if she skates her best.

 

[yelyoh]

ok third but just behind Bradie so she can get silver. Maybe gold.

 

[CellarDweller]

OK, I must get to bed, see you all tomorrow!!!

 

[Bluediamonds09]

Wow, that was a fun event!!!

 

[saine]

She's still in the mix with how close 2nd-4th are score wise, better to have this short here than Worlds.

 

[yuumagical]

Noooooo Please keep it together for the free skate Amber I beg of you

Edit: I need to keep it together too

 

[yelyoh]

I think the judges held Bradie up. That won't work at World's and we need three spots for Olympics.

 

[museksk8r]

I have always felt the US judges overscore Bradie. She never scores as high internationally.

 

[labgoat]

It's been a long day of skating. See you tomorrow! Loved your company

 

[Bluediamonds09]

Did anyone else watching this on Peacock hear the conversation between amber and someone else?

I have always felt the US judges overscore Bradie. She never scores as high internationally.

If you look at PCS here vs international panels this year it's not Bradie's PCS or score that stands out and that's all I'm going to say.

I have always felt the US judges overscore Bradie. She never scores as high internationally.

The love her fight and consistency and are willing to overlook some of the tenseness that comes with it.

 

[museksk8r]

No, I didn’t. What was said?

 

[Seven Sisters]

If I were a skater, I think my takeaway from this event would be, I’m ordering up an “Irish dance” program for next season. Or Hallelujah. Give the people what they want, and don’t get too arty

 

[museksk8r]

The love her fight and consistency and are willing to overlook some of the tenseness that comes with it.

She consistently places low internationally though: 9th at the 2018 Olympics, 9th at 2021 Worlds, 15th at the 2023 Worlds, 5th at both her GP events this season.

I know there's the whole "early group" thing but Sonja Hilmer's PCS score is a crime.

Being in an earlier group sure did not hurt Alysa Liu though!

 

[RatedPG]

Well, that was awful judging

The funny part is they show Alysa Liu in the lead and then show her 3F 3T<

The federation clearly are pushing Alysa, Amber and Elyce.

I felt bad for Lindsay… yes, she under rotates her jumps, but, so do Alysa and Bradie.

Alysa is the athlete I’m rooting for, despite the biased judging. I just love that she is back.

The battle will be between Bradie and Sarah for the Worlds spot. Which, might not be decided till after 4CC.

Elyce still has a chance to go to Junior Worlds though. Battle for the second spot if Sarah does beat Bradie, which, I think she will due to her consistency.

So, could be a battle between Sherry, Logan, Mia and Elyce for the Junior Worlds spot.
