My stream was fairly clear with great sound and realized my settings weren't on HD. C'mon peese!

I don't know, she was at Worlds last year, IIRC, does that count at all for the scores this year? I think this is her first competition this season, she's had a number of concussions and surgery. But I don't see why the Dutch federation would want to send her to Worlds in this condition...

Not sure about the scores Winnie. I heard about her medical issues. Poor girl, but what a trooper. And..I like her a lot. She has the tricks in her bag!!

She's pretty good, just obviously not at her best right now. I think she trains in Canada these days, probably much better training facilities than over here (where the focus is on speed skating).

She doesn't need scores for Worlds, she still has them from last year. She only needed to prove she's in a good physical state..

Also, for who was watching junior ladies yesterday. The dutch girl who had to be carried of the ice, she broke her ankle :shocked::eeking:

Thanks for the confirmation. I figured that might be the case, but... "good physical state"? I really am not an expert, but purely from a viewer's point of view (ha)... her performances looks a bit scary right now.

Oh, ouch, is that what that was? I saw the scrolling text on the livestream earlier this morning. Poor girl.

Great that Niki has the scores if they decide to send her! Poor Jr. Girl. What a shame.
