Standings at the half-way point.

 

Tinne Vilhelmson-Silfven (Don Auriello) - 80.718%

Judy Reynolds (Vancouver K) - 79.350%

Benjamin Werndl (Daily Mirror) - 79.118%

 

Tinne nailed it. Judy had her redemption after yesterday.

 

But generally I felt everyone was underscored (except Werndl). I doubt any of the favorites will get the same treatement later on.

87.179% for Graves. Enough for a win, or a bridesmaid position for the third year in a row?

Hat trick for Werth.

Daniel missed out on the podium. But that was quite something from Langehanenberg to take the bronze.

 

Incredible how 85.468% was not enough for a medal. In 2016 that would have been an easy gold.

Isabell Werth (Weihegold OLD) - 88.871%

Laura Graves (Verdades) - 87.179%

Award presenter: "Do you remember where you won your first World Cup title (in 1992)?"

Werth: "No. Where?"

Award presenter: "Here, in Gothenburg."

Werth: "Really?!"

Award presenter: "Thankfully my research skills are better than your memory."

 

Isabell being as honest and briliant as ever.
