97 Worlds - Ladies FS

What do you guys think about this one? The ordinals for the free skate were very odd, I know Michelle had 3 1sts and 6 2nds, Tara had 3 1sts, 3 2nds and 3 3rds and Irina had 3 1sts and 6 3rds.
To me, I would have put Michelle first. She had the best overall performance and her artistry was great. Tara definitely had the technical edge that night, and Irina was also impressive with that huge triple salchow - triple loop combination.

I would have done this
Michelle
5.8
5.9

Tara
5.9
5.7

Irina
5.8
5.6

I say Michelle, because she did have a great skate that night.

"Taj Mahal" is personally my favorite LP by Michelle, so you know who i voted for.

Yeah, I liked Michelle a lot more when her costumes were more substantial and her interpretation was more intense. The "free like a bird/Angel" Michelle just doesn't get me going. Plus her costumes since 97-98 haven't looked that nice. She looks soooo cold.

Tara for me, on both technical and presentation.
