Florent Amodio of France led an upset of the young generation in the Men's short program as veterans faltered. The 20-year-old Amodio won the short ahead of also 20-year-old Michal Březina of the Czech Republic and Russia's 17-year-old Artur Gachinski.
It´s a very close competition, Joubert is only about 3 points away from the third place in sp and I´d expect Verner to rise to a medal in the freeskate, too.
