Yikes, based on what I see here, Alissa Czisny may have a good shot at making the GPF!
Erm. How many triplels did Kanako land? I wasn't counting, but from what I remember seeing it was 2?
Makes it even sadder that Ashley finished fifth in a field like this! I've never seen her mess up like that! Yes a costly mistake in the short program, two footed jumps in the long but messing up 2 spins, losing all her energy AND messing up jumps? Never seen that. And I've been watching her for a long time now. The last time she finished as low as 5th in the GP was her debut at SC in 2007...
She landed a 3T+3T and a 3Lz. She was only 5th in the LP, but the other ladies were just terrible. I think Korpi landed 3 as well. Gede did 4.
Zhang's mule kick isn't gone from the 3Lz, by the way.
You forgot Ashley's disaster in the LP at 2008 Worlds...
I'm sad for Ashley, it looked like she didn't have strength in her feet necessary to support her jump landings, spins, and footwork. I hope it's just due to lack of training time this summer and nothing serious.
