Kailani Craine is a possibility for the SA GP spot replacement. She’s not a podium threat to compete with Bradie, and also, Kailani trains in the US.
With already 3 Japanese, Russian and US skaters, the substitute list for Tursynbaeva is shorter!
01 (24) 196.34 Yelim KIM (KOR) – GP CAN
02 (34) 183.98 Young YOU (KOR) – GP CAN
03 (39) 180.55 Marina PIREDDA (ITA)
04 (42) 179.88 Ekaterina RIABOVA (AZE) – GP RUS
05 (46) 177.22 Yi Christy LEUNG (HKG)
06 (56) 172.02 Emmi PELTONEN (FIN)
07 (58) 170.56 Nicole SCHOTT (GER)
08 (61) 169.03 Nicole RAJICOVA (SVK)
09 (62) 167.84 Kailani CRAINE (AUS)
10 (63) 166.77 Eliska BREZINOVA (CZE)
(11 (71) 164.68 Yasmine YAMADA (SUI)
12 (72) 162.80 Yujin CHOI (KOR))
With 4 spots available (USA, FRA, CHN and JPN), there are now higher chances for the korean girls to get a 2nd GP.
You missed Veronik Mallet, she slots in at 7th, ahead of Nicole Schott .
Also Elizabeth is only crossed off SA. She’s still listed for China.
Well, the politics between the PRC government and Hong Kong aren't exactly great at the moment.There's still one TBA spot for China, which has some chances to be given to another country, as there's not many other competitive/eligible chinese girls. Why not Yi Christy Leung?

I'm lost ...who are the replacementes for men, ladies and pairs?
Weren’t Ryom/Kim asssigned to IdF? Any reason given for the WD there?
:disapp:Another communication's issue by FFSG
They were initially announced by the French Fed as replacers for James/Ciprès, but then the ISU update gave Ghilardi/Ambrosini as replacers. Another communication's issue by FFSG
Wikipedia page is updated as
Young YOU to Skate America and
Marina PIREDDA to Internationaux de France
but could not find sources.
At fisrt FFSG wanted stronger competitors and then preferred a less expensive team in cost-covering.
