2026 World Figure Skating Championships | Women's Short Program

[Ichatdelune]

no in terms of needs I think two spots for men may be harder than three for women but both will be hard.
better was for Junhwan and Hyungyeom to be able to compete again next year with two spots. One spot is tough and it's really hard to get two when down to 1. (though, for Junhwan, should be simple enough to get top 10)

I don't worry about the men's tickets that much because just as you said if my darling is healthy enough and with working boots a top 10 will not be that difficult so we'll get two tickets back soon enough, while among the women we have the twins coming up, my love Chaeyeon returning to competition, and Young not being retired... I have a headache just thinking about it

Maddie, redemption!!!

 

[4everchan]

Well Maddie should qualify but she's not there. The combo was tight and the loop exit wasn't good.

I love it. Madeline Schizas came out for the 6 minute warmup in short program in a pink outfit by time she skated short program. It us gold.
People wonder why fs is low.

REDEMPTION SKATE FROM MADDIE!!!!!!!! It wasn't perfect, there were some little errors and she lost some GOE on quality of her elements, but she pulled in, rotated, and didn't fall, and that will be enough to see her into the free skate. Huge props to her for putting her Olympic disaster behind her and delivering a good skate, this program is so effective when she skates well.

let's hear the lion queen's roar!

I expect to hear it in the K&C.

Well with this skate, one more skater who could have damaged Korea's chances for 3 spots is out of the running. Maddie skated very nervously

 

[Mista Ekko]

So many ladies are finishing ahead of the music,
I wonder if it's something to do with the latency in the arena

 

[cocteautwin]

Maddie survived Not perfect but no disaster today.

Madeline. Nice dress and program. Good skate.

 

[ruffledgrouse]

Good enough!

 

[4everchan]

I will be more half full than half empty.... there was a lot of pressure on Maddie considering her Olympics skate.. so it's a good result for her.

A skater from Ontario with a Greek surname skating to "African" music in Prague. This is the most impressive cultural implosion with techno Dvorak Macarena Hills Cop or whatever the DJs unholy mix CD was.

 

[Arriba627]

Not perfect but a good energy! A bit of redemption from the Olys. Love that costume!

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

Madeline SCHIZAS (CAN) skating to a medley of songs from the live action re-make of "The Lion King"

And she was wearing a lion-coloured dress.

Not perfect, but still very good.

She's happy enough with the score.

She goes into 4th position.

Ah. Didn't realise that "Schizas" was a Greek name. Thank you for enlightening me.

And now we have Irish music.

I really like this Riverdance program. Do we know who choreographed it?

Erm, she wants the big Q. It's the wee q she doesn't want.
