Bit below par for North Korea, 4 points down on last years World Championships.

 

Might be tough for them to finish in top 4 here if Israel and the Czech Republic are at their best in the free skate. They may well need to rely on a reallocated French quota unless they produce near their best in the free.

Alexandrovskaya/Windsor did well. If Kailani Crane grabs women's singles quota then Australia will be looking to participate in the team event.

Does Alexandrovskaya have Australian citizenship?

Not yet, but she will get it soon apparently.

She isn't really trying to get Danish citizenship

 

I see. Still, it's even more unfortunate that Denmark doesn't seem to have any other ice dance couple. They still could have used that quota place.

Any livescore for follow the men's individual?

Well. With less than 2000 members (including speed skaters) we aren't likely to put up anything noteworthy.

Must be a special exemption for her?

Normally she would have to wait until 2019 or 2020

I imagine it should be. I don't know the details though, I've just read from an Australian user on GoldenSkate that all the pieces are in place (usually a good place to check things like this).

Majorov wasn't bad, but no way he's getting over 260 by the end of the free skate.

 

Swedish NOC is just mean. Literally criteria for him is to beat top 20 all-time score in men's singles skating.
