More precisely, Jenni is about 2 months older than Rachael (which is why Jenni is age eligible to compete at senior Worlds and she did compete at the European championships), 11 months older than Mirai, and 12 months older than Caroline.Jenni is almost 16 (May 26, 1992), a year or more older than Rachael, Caroline and Mirai. The three US girls had all or most of the difficult jumps by the time they were 13, and were doing 3/3s with the tough jumps at 14.
That's not to say Jenni can't get the jumps, but it's going to be hard to learn them and get them consistent while she is growing taller and filling out.

I doubt that Jenni will win junior Worlds next year. If she's not strong to make in onto the Finnish senior Worlds team next year, she won't be strong enough to beat Angela Maxwell, Amanda Dobbs, and Ellie Kawamura (much less Rachael if she is forced to defend her title) at junior Worlds.About Jenni - I would give her another year in Juniors to win it with a complete arsenal of jumps followed by an Oly win, if eligible or definitely a Senior Worlds win. We have our new Kwan and she's from Finland.
