2026 Olympics: Women's Short Program

[elektra blue]

Kristen can be proud of herself!

 

[bartlebooth]

For me Frozen is one of the best of Madonna's songs

It's sure suitable to Ice skating

 

[Rikku]

Aww, popped the axel. It was pretty, though

Simon said, she can't do a double due to injury

 

[yelyoh]

big mistake.

 

[ramurphy2005]

Aww, popped the axel. It was pretty, though

It was an intentional single because of her leg issues.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Oh, the single was planned! Ok, she accomplished what she wanted and got to skate on Olympic ice

 

[brblja]

I like this program! Is Ruiyang an up and coming skater? I'd like to keep an eye on her

Yes, it's her first senior season and she's been pretty consistent so far.

 

[Karoltyna]

now that Deanna and Max have skated... and that Piper and Paul have had their medals... I am pretty chill...

I still have so many rotations to pray for...

 

[LeReveur]

Mmm... if you didn't already have a thing against voiceovers/lyrics being allowed, I'm sure you didn't appreciate being taken to a museum to listen to some activist bellowing some message... not my taste, at least.

 

[TT_Fin]

I am afraid she will not make it to the free.

 

[Jontor]

I don't understand why the Brits didn't send Nina Povey?

Spours can't do a 2A, and that's very costly as you need to do it in every program.

 

[elektra blue]

For me Frozen is one of the best of Madonna's songs

for me it's Secret

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Ouch... but not unexpected

 

[Sabsi]

Tough score

Still better than "you are not nothing, embrace the storm"

I don't understand why the Brits didn't send Nina Povey?

Spours can't do a 2A, and that's very costly as you need to do it in every program.

Spours outscored Povey at Nationals even with the injury.

U.S. commentator (Terry Gannon?) said that she was allowed to be at the venue, but not in the K&C. She was watching the monitor.

Pathetic but I guess best not to distract. I see Daniil is here but wasn't allowed in Beijing, what gives?

Can anyone tell me from practise sessions if she was doing ultra C? I was surprised not to see the 3A

Simon says... did you all play that game as kids ???
