Oy- I have to agree. I understand she was on a MISSION here; and technically met her goal- and I believe she is the rightful winner- but... I look forward to her inspiring some kind of passion next season. Amazing achievement from Yuna- but very workmanlike- but maybe she had to be,

Gracie refers to herself as his girlfriend in this note she sent to Max. http://instagram.com/p/WK-WuJI2Bc/
So it's cute the lovebirds did so well!
D'awwww. That's adorable.

Isnt Radianova age ineligible. In that case there are really only 4 women fighting for 2 spots- Sotnikova, Tuktamysheva, Leonova, and Liptnitskaya. If Leonova skates anything like she has this year she has no chance, so that leaves only 3 really.

And if you were they might actually see you do it on her front porch (just move that dead moose out of the way first).

Yahooooo! Fantastic day at the arena! Thanks to all the forum (s) folk I met up with who added to the enjoyment.
Old tired but happy coyote off to bed.

Wow, didn't see it like that at all. Overall, I thought it was a great ladies competition with some wonderful moments.

I wouldn't know; I'm a mouth breather myself so pinching off my nose completely would not bother me in the slightest. But I suppose if you're not used to breathing that way, it would be a big distraction.

Very beautiful high quality competition!!! Congratulations Yuna Kim, she deserved to win!! After a bad men's competition, those ladies really made me happy! Carolina was super, Mao was really good. And also congrats to US ladies for taking 3rd spot back and especially Gracie Gold for that performance caught my whole heart! Such a high level competition tonight we have watched! I'm just full of happiness. Kanako Murakami has proven herself, and little Zijun she skated like a future champion!! Russian girls did their best with that much pressure on them. I think getting 2 spots is well for Russia, because their talents are so young that sometimes injuries happen and they are passing through puberty. Remember they couldn't decide whom to send to Worlds this year. A really beautiful competition to remember, like an olympic event! Just one thing makes me sad: Akiko Suzuki couldn't deliver her best. Not her day...

Aw that was sweet of Kristi to give that shoutout to Gracie.
And really it's better that Gracie, Zijun, Kaetlyn and Co. have respectable debuts in the Top 10....we've seen the perils of too much success too soon on some skaters....
@GraceEGold I was 6th at my first Worlds too

Bolero is not my cup of tea, but Carolina's skate made me like it a little.
I was so happy that Mao didn't unravel after the first two flawed jumping passes. She continued fighting the whole entire time.
Yuna just laid it down and showed the world that after two seasons, she jumps as well if not better than she did in Vancouver.
The veterans really brought it.

No, I am not kidding you. Unless you want to emphasize "disgraceful"
Can't wait to hear your report, Chris!
You can't be a mouth breather as a competitive athlete.
The crazy thing is, Yuna is the ONLY skater whom I can watch and not even consider the possibility of her falling. It just...doesn't happen. Wouldn't happen. She's INSANELY secure.

agree...not worse but they won't be contenders with these seniors + some of these amazing young girls from China, US and Canada
ITA, great performance but not inspiring but maybe it came across differently live cuz the people were out of their seats.
