Aliona won by 236 TES 88. Rika's TES was 77 due to first Axel landing and downgraded program. This means they are very close competitor and Anna will be in the same zone because her last SP score should have been higher than that. Sasha is still bit ahead of all but difference seems to be just one jump. It will be very exiting competition in NHK and final!
Rika scored 87 last year in TES at NHK. and She was underscored in PCS if you asked me. should be something like what Alëna got here so they are close. What would be a tie breaker are GOEs on each element. I think Alëna's spins are better and some of her jumps are cleaner and have more flow too. It's really a matter of who goes clean on the day. What would put her above Alena if both went clean is a 4S. or a +3S combo or something like Hanyu's eu+3F instead of a 3T.
