So far she hasn't lost to anyone in her entire international career when she was clean. In the next season, if both she and Medvedeva will continue competing, it might be even closer between them, especially if ISU will change something with backloading. Meanwhile I hope that Alina will get better programs, better interpretation and her components may slightly grow. Your thoughts?
P.S. i know you like these threads
Medvedeva theoretically can if the flutz is not called. Apart from that, no. Rika Kihira perhaps could if she managed a clean skate... Good luck with that. Otherwise, will have to wait until the 2019-2020 season.
the more i think about it, the more i realize that clean medvedeva should beat her.
it's clear that with a new +5 thing GOE should matter more than a BV.
and try to guess who receives the highest GOEs on the senior scene.
it all goes in this order
1. medvedeva
2. kostner
3. zagitova
Kostner would only get that in the SP. Her past FSs have not gone well at all and it would be unfair to give her high GOEs.
There was commentary for Junior Worlds?? I only saw videos sans commentary. Could you link me to that video of Trusova's FS please?
When they look at the World Record 2017 - 2018 for ladies figure skating. It will show that Kaetly Osmond won and it will always be in the records. She will be easily remembered and also our hero.
