2018 Olympic Figure Skating Ladies FS

[MaiKatze]

Congrats to all three medallists and the japanese Ladies. Most impressed by Kaetlyn tonight.

 

[Aino]

Kaetlyn got the bronze!!!!!! This is a happy day

 

[jaylee]

I just realized....Both Alina and Evgenia got 156.65 for their FS :shocked:

Evgenia didn't get her lutz called. Clearly the technical panel was trying to help her out.

 

[lutzlover]

Incredibly happy with the results, zag's win made my night!!

 

[Heleng]

Evgenia may not have gotten gold, but she'll always be a champion to me.

 

[shiroKJ]

Isn't the tiebreaker the TES? Why did Evgenia win the FS?

 

[Sam-Skwantch]

Now we have a new Olympic upset drama to argue for the next 4 years!

:yay: I missed it all but I’m sure I’ll hear about it at some point

 

[anonymoose_au]

I wonder if zhenya goes for another 4 years now.

Expect Zagitova to disappear now in the vein of most Russian skaters (and Tara).

Well they've not all disappeared. They're just not as good as they used to be, I mean Liza is still there and Leonova...

 

[Shayuki]

I just realized....Both Alina and Evgenia got 156.65 for their FS :shocked:

They should share the gold medal.

"I did absolutely everything I could."
-Zhenya to Eteri


I'm just. I'm just so mad. I'm so mad because you're world champion for two years and you miss one competition, and you're finished. You work on artistry, and they hand the same PCS to someone fresh out of juniors. It's infuriating. It's painful. It's sad.

IJS might have helped push the tech, but it's also stifled art.
I'm heartbroken. But I'm also furious.

Don't most ladies single skaters disappear, whether they are Russian or not? The ones who stick it out are the exception everywhere.

Interestingly, if Evgenia put the 3F+3T and the 3Lz in the second half, that would have given her about 1.5 points extra in technical, enough to have won the gold medal.

 

[Ophelia]

Zagitova used Eteri's tricks and beat Med and Eteris at their own game. It's sort of fitting.

PCS tiebreaks the Free. TES breaks the Short.

 

[GGFan]

Evgenia feel free to call Michelle. She knows a lot about being beat by a loop combo at the Olympics. :dev2: (Feel free to get some artistry tips during the call too)

 

[BabblingBrook]

I'm still crying (which is not got since I have to leave in 20 minutes for school) Zhenya deserved that gold....

 

[randomfan]

Isn't the tiebreaker the TES? Why did Evgenia win the FS?

My question exactly.

 

[gravy]

I wanna go to Cinnabon and order Johnny Weir's hair. WT eff is he wearing on his head.

 

[NAOTMAA]

Evgenia only 2.44 better then Alina in PCS

Thank god 1998 wasn't judged under COP! It would have destroyed me seeing the PCS marks between Michelle and Tara that close

I know most people expect her to either not be around or at least competitive anymore when the next olys roll around but you know what? I really want Med to prove us wrong and go in for a second Olys and win.

I really had hoped for her to win - that FS was a thing of beauty but that god damn tech score..
