As I've said before, I would not be surprised or sorry to see her win in 2010. She has something special that others do not - joy, confidence, and a sense of humor, even about herself! - and works hard. All it would take is for her to have the performance of her life while Yu Na has her first meltdown and the others skate pretty much the way they've been skating. I love this girl and wish her the best.The ladies do not look promising for the Olympic season. Can't believe that mini Iryna suddently gets into the top tier...
Let's see how Yuna does at SA and the GPF. So far she seems invincible, but it she has an off-night (and gets scores closer to what everyone else has been getting), suddenly it could be anyone's game...maybe it's just my own wishful thinking, I dunno...the Olys have proven to shake things up every time...
The winner of ladies event at TEB scored 210.03.
The winner at CoR scored 171.93.
The winner at CoC scored 176.66.
The winner at NHK scored 162.55.
Just splendid.
Boy, you said it. I wonder if Yuna's scores are just psyching everyone out, especially the other top skaters. Must be hard to think you are training so hard for Olympic silver and bronze.
We haven't seen the best yet from the likes of Rochette and Ando though ... oh who am I kidding ... even those two would need a meltdown from Yuna to win. Some posters seem to want Yuna to mess up just to make things more interesting. But as far as I'm concerned, her brilliant skating is the ONLY thing exciting this season for the women. It'd be awful if she too collapsed.
BUT congrats to Ashley!! She is right to be excited for the rest of the season.
Leonova: 24 (edge out wagner on tie breaker)
Is it just me or does Miki's coach always look pissed at her, she almost seems scared of him :scratch:
