2022 U.S. Championships: Senior Women's Short Program

[YuliaLipnitskayaFan1]

She's skating to "Ladies in Lavender" in grey??

That was my first thought! I'm going to Google "Ladies in Lavender" because I'm sure there is a reason!

Pretty skate from Kate.

Also, does she rotate in the opposite direction as most skaters?

Yes, she's a clockwise spinner. Most skaters spin counterclockwise.

Prayer circle time!

Yes, it was Alysa's coach Christy Krall who also coaches Sierra. Bradie is coached by Tom Z.

Oh sorry but Bradie used to be taught by Denise Myers and I was looking at the woman on our left who I thought was she.

Ok everyone.

Stay cool, be cool...

Good luck Gracie!

Gracie looks wonderful!!

I'd send Isabeau to Jeremy and Massimo for her basic skating just look how much faster Alysa got after just a few months with them and also get a jump expert to work on her jumps because that jump technique isn't going to last with a few inch growth spurt.

I've heard Isabeau is actually quite fast in person. Isabeau's coach choreographed that beautiful program. Isabeau shouldn't leave her.

Wow! Did you see that Lutz?! Gracie could turn it into a quad it was so high.

 

[Colonel Green]

Good for you, Gracie.

[readernick]

Great jumps, Gracie! The rest of this program is a bit meh to me but I'm happy for her

 

[Joe Mendoza]

Well I’m tearing up with her. I’m so happy for her, she deserves this!

 

[Tinymavy15]

Standing O!!! So so so proud of Gracie! Just as Tara was like "she's not in contention here"

 

[anonymoose_au]

OMG...she's so happy!

I'm having emotions right now.
