2026 World Figure Skating Championships | Women's Short Program

[Karoltyna]

Decent skate for home girl, SB for sure?

 

[Jeanie19]

Barbora. Pretty dress and a nice program. Nice world debut. And the home audience is so wonderful.

 

[flanker]

She skated beautifully, the more sad is the mistake.

 

[Ares]

Oh no, Barbora popped her axel into 1.5 one, no points for that in the SP. The rest was good.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Darn, did I mix up my time zones? I thought this added at 6 Central time?

Looks like I only missed the beginning though

 

[EdgeCall]

Still a season's best.

 

[elektra blue]

Nargiz!

And we start with the host country's entry, Barbora VRANKOVA (CZE). And she is wearing a really beautiful blue dress.

Can't say that I am fussed on the music.

Unfortunately, she had a 2-footed landing on the Axel. But, on the whole, she was good.

Awwww. She was overcome with emotion when she was finished. This must be a big moment for her, making her Senior Worlds debut on home ice.

Arty farty shot when she came off the ice. Hope that doesn't become a regular feature.

She is happy with her scores.

Not a bad score considering the mistake, looks like the panel may be lenient today

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Quick thinking to get the combo in

OH, that was a cool split slide!

 

[elektra blue]

love this program for Nargiz and split slide! sadly i'm afraid she's not going to make it to the free

 

[cocteautwin]

Even with the fall, that was a beautiful skate from Nargiz, I always enjoy to watch her skating

 

[Jeanie19]

Nargiz. Pretty blue dress and I love this program. Good skate.

 

[FlossieH]

Sadly I think that fall will be very costly for Nargiz.

 

[Ares]

I really loved that slide split during the step sequence. A difficult and effective move from Suleymanova. A pity about 3Lz fall. She might beat Vrankova so far, especially as I think she deserves higher components.

 

[Jeanie19]

Last year the cutoff was 50.98.

 

[Sabsi]

Nargiz not the skate she wanted but I loved the choreo slide

 

[elektra blue]

Last year the cutoff was 50.98.

so Barbora could still make it

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Nargiz SUELEYMANOVA (AZE) is wearing a gorgeous very dark blue dress and skating to a medley from "A Star Is Born".

I have a soft spot for Nargiz, and "Shallow" always gets me.

So, suffice to say, I am biased. But I loved that!

Apart from the obvious, that was beautiful.

Drones following the skaters while they are on the ice. It was bad enough having a person with a camera. But this is going too far.

She goes into 2nd position.

I'm disappointed. And, although she is still smiling, it looks like it is through gritted teeth. She's disappointed too.
