Adding Courtney now! Thanks :) I haven't added Polina because atm I don't think her scores really put her in contention for a spot!

USA:

Ashley Wagner
Karen Chen
Mirai Nagasu

Japan:

Wakaba Higuchi
Satoko Miyahara



Russia doesn't get to go the olympics anyways, but if they did Medvedeva, Zagitova and Sotskova....as far as i can say, they can give there spots to Japan....


i wanted to pick Marin Honda, but it say build THE olympic team, not YOUR olympic team...

What about the third Canadian spot. I think the first 2 are a lock but who gets the third?

No need to name her, Canadian women are the usual three, no one else will come close even though Canadian girl #1 is far ahead of Canadian girl #2...and Canadian girl #2 is even more far ahead of Canadian girl #3...but no one else is even going to come close to Canadian girl #3....

Yeah, I thought at the beginning of the year, Canadian girl #4 and #5 can give a push to Canadian girl #3, but it turns out i'm wrong. Canadian girl #4 and #5 are struggling even more...

What I Want:
Japan: Marin & Satoko
USA: Karen & Bradie & Mariah
Russia: Evgenia & Alina & Anna

What will happen:
Japan: Satoko & Wakaba
USA: Bradie & Ashley & Mirai
Russia: Evgenia & Alina & Maria

Wakaba Higuchi

Russia

Kazakhstan
