Samodelkina has withdrawn due to injury per her Instagram stories.

Phew! Got caught up on the last Junior skater just in time!

We stay with the girls, but move from the Junior Ladies SP to the Senior Ladies SP.

Starting now, on the same stream.

ALL THE BEST EVERYBODY!!!

What a start to the competition from Sofiya FARAFONOVA (KAZ)!

Can't say I am too keen on this version of "Putting On The Ritz", but she was enjoying herself out there.

She was wearing a white dress with red pattern. It was like a cheerleader's dress.

Have to admit, I didn't recognise her at first. When did she get so grown up?!

She goes into the lead. Obviously.

hello everyone

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

I wasn't able to comment during most of the first group because I was eating. But, I just wanted to say that I enjoyed all the programmes so far.

It says a lot about how good the group was that Farafonova is in last position.

I'm glad I decided to watch this competition LIVE.

Go Maddie!!

 

[elektra blue]

Maddy as the blue swan

 

[crystalspin]

Cmon Maddie!! Oh no some mistakes... I still love the intensity of the program on her.

she does drama well

 

[lileychristie]

Uh oh Maddie, 2Lz and 3Lo fall

Looks to me that olympic spot might be slipping more and more from her grasp.....

 

[cocteautwin]

Yesterday I watched Kaetlyn Osmond's black swan program and I'm afraid Maddie's composition and choreo complexity is nowhere near that one.

 

[auser]

Joining late but Madeline's last spin positions looked lovely.

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

You know, I put Josephine LEE (USA) into 2nd in my predictions purely because I had put LEE Haein (KOR) into 1st position and thought it would be cool to have 2 skaters with the same surname at the top.

Now I am so glad I did! "Objection" is my favourite Shakira song! And although Josephine did have a fall, on the whole she was good.

She goes into 2nd position. 1.40 points behind Madeline SCHIZAS (CAN)

[elektra blue]

Haein...the lead is there for you to take, keep it together

 

[TallyT]

Not keen on Haein's dress, the colours are pretty but it's a bit of a floofy mess.

 

[Seven Sisters]

My prayer to the skate gods—oh please do not allow this cover vocalist to become the new Lara Fabian, I could not bear the thought of it

 

[CaroLiza_fan]

If it was based on music alone, I would now be wishing I had put the two Lee girls the other way around. Because, although I liked Sydnie Christmas in her "Britain's Got Talent" audition (when she sang "Tomorrow" from "Annie"), I do not like her version of "My Way".

But as for skating, no question about it, LEE Haein (KOR) will be the overnight leader.

Yep, and by some distance. She is 9.23 points ahead of 2nd position, Madeline SCHIZAS (CAN).

Break of nearly an hour, so I am going to wind back and watch the Junior Men's FS from Nice. And then watch the Junior Pairs SP from Gdańsk LIVE.

Hi, does anyone have a link to the results? The one listed is giving me an error message about being fake.
