You probably know names of skaters who were considered the future of figure skating, yet failed to deliver for whatever reason. It makes you think, what happened?
My questions are: who? and why didn't they make it?
Keyla Ohs, Mira Leung (not sure yet). I think part of the problem was that there was too much media hype to begin with which put them in an unfavourable position. Superficially, the attention seems to be a nice thing, but I think it really sets the skater up for a lot of expectations and with so many other factors beyond their control, it becomes a let down when they don't become what fans expect.
