* The only evidence I can find for this is Christy' s Wikipedia entry. She is not listed as competing as a senior Lady at this competition. Perhaps she competed s a junior at Chinese Nationals that season?

Congratulations for 4th place at US classic

 

[Colonel Green]

She's been fourth at three straight events this season. Can we get this girl a podium, please?

 

[gizmo]

Thanks for starting a thread for Christy!!

 

[Bluediamonds09]

Any news about her and her skating?

 

[sk8r4ever]

I think she is the current Chinese national champion.

 

[gizmo]

Should probably had posted this earlier. Congrats for Christy winning the Nationals and now is the Chinese National Champ! Big yay for Hong Kong!!

All the best for the 4CC, rooting for her for clean programmes there and she can well be in the top 10 if not higher!!

 

[Mohacz]

I've just updated her OP. I've added all the results, programs and as many videos as I could find. I've also found one article where she talks about her hopes for Beijing 2022. Enjoy

On a side note, I don't follow ladies too much, but she was one of the skaters that drew my attention this season. I was pleasantly surprised by her performance at the Worlds and would like to wish her all the best in the future. Also, her dresses are very pretty

 

[Mohacz]

Recently she was 3rd at the Broadmoor Open.

Good luck in the upcoming season!

Any news about Yi Christy? She hasn't competed in a long time.
