Someone has to make crazy predictions. The only crazy prediction is Yuma winning though. I can see Kaori score 78 and 154 if clean. That's 232, a score that Rika can beat but can easily fall below with one costly mistake. Especially if she doesn't attempt a quad or land a clean quad.

That is a sad commentary on the judging in Japan if Kaori can get 232 with her current programs. The ridiculous GOE and PCS inflation she gets lately reminds me of the ISU trying to help Kostner compete without 3/3s by giving her seemingly infinite PCS scores. Lol A strong case can be made that Kaori should have the lowest PCS of the top 4 girls in Japan. Edges and flow, where she excels, are a part of skating skills, true. But the other girls are also strong in skating skills, so any edge Kaori may get there should be easily eclipsed by the other 3 who are all superior to Sakamoto in musicality, overall body control and gracefulness, where Kaori is not very strong.
