Great skate from Li, she landed all her jumps! Standing O! There might be some <, but who cares?

FS: 69.41 + 58.13 = 127.54 (PB)
Tot: 183.85 (PB), in 2nd (out of 18)

Less than a point behind Gold

 

[Blades of Passion]

Whoah. Superb technical performance from the Chinese girl, with a great ending.

 

[pangtongfan]

This could move into 2nd which would be the final death knall to the Russians already faint hopes for 3 spots. What a great skate, charming little skater.

 

[ImaginaryPogue]

Some in the audience started standing before it ended. Beautiful, and definitely should keep two spots for China.

 

[mirai4life]

Zijun is my hero! She's amazing. Omfg.

 

[anothermom]

Is anyone else's Eurosport feed freezing up?

 

[artsciboy]

Standing O for Zijun Li!!! She brought it!

 

[MaiKatze]

Wow, Zijun Li! First performance that put goosebumps on my skin. First absolutely clean one right? Wow.

 

[jamie]

First worlds for her, yes. Her team mate was 7th last year, but has been well surpassed Li this season.

 

[kimganos]

Outstanding! The future is here in this young lady! Wow,

 

[Violet Bliss]

Yey beautiful Zijun!!!!!!

 

[FSGMT]

Zijun did her best, but with Zhang's performance China will have only one spot... Will she beat Liza? :think:

 

[aftertherain]

AND A STANDING OVATION EVEN BEFORE THE MUSIC ENDS. YES. This is how a program should be performed!

 

[FlattFan]

But Li did hit all of her jumps. Gracie didn't. Ooh.

Sure, but her +GOE won't be as good. And her SS is still rather weak. She's a slight girl. Not a lot of power. Very pretty to watch, though.

 

[Krislite]

Wow! Li!

 

[jatro]

Oh yes by Li!!! Standing Ovation!!! Wow!

 

[ForeverFish]

I think that overtook Gracie. Think.

 

[WeakAnkles]

I hope she sticks to pop and Aguilera because I would throw a fit if she attempted to skate to the great soulful songs.

Let her grow up a bit and I think she'd be quite good. She's got the feeling for it, but she's still so young. Live a little, then come back and I bet it would be very interesting.

 

[tulosai]

OMG Li! One of my favorites and this is definitely my favorite program of the night so far. If she doesn't go ahead of Gracie I'll... have to see the protocols lol. This was just brilliant and I a so glad she went out there and screamed 'pay attention to ME, judges'.

I hope this posts a huge score. She is a truly beautiful skater.
