Ayumi just took herself out of the hunt to make it to the finals. It will be a battle of the top 3. Jia is looking shaky. But, she can still win the event with a clean free skate. Minsol is the the athlete from Korea who is really stepping it up. The 3F 3T in the second half showed me she is fighting for that spot and giving it her all. Ami is the leader, she can land a 3A, but, also single her triples, so, we will see how well she fights in the free skate. What was interesting to me, is that she is attempting 4T and 4Lz. Japan is really stepping it up…Russia versus Japan in the future will be intense
