I’m sad for the Poles, who on paper were the presumptive silver medalists here.
The way has been cleared for an all-North American podium.
Me too, they're a good team, but LOVED Piper & Paul's program. Thought the Parsons were exquisite too, and very polished. C/P had a good performance, and continue to improve, but I don't see them as up to the Parsons level yet in power, flow, edge quality, overall skill and polish, etc. The Parsons' experience shows in this event. So IMHO there should have been a wider gap between their scores, especially after watching the video again. But it was a good performance by all the top 3 teams. Piper & Paul are always wonderful to watch and I think the Parsons are in good shape for Silver. LOVE their FD this year! Surprised to see how close C/P and P/P are, but FD should be exciting to watch and would like to see these three continue to shine, and the Poles too!
