What are these minimum requirements? Are these a certain point score? 

 

 

This may look incredibly easy at first, but these are required TES scores in fact (so total segment score minus presentation score).

 

I initially expected that requirements will be the same as here, but now I'm surprised that Olympics apparently have considerably easier TES requirements than the Worlds. Therefore Australian ice dance couple already achieved it here, despite scoring less than 100 pts overall...

I guess we'll be a reserve nation then.

And now onto women's singles, which should be by far the least predictable.

 

Btw, this is the last chance for Swiss figure skaters to avoid missing two Winter Olympics in a row... For the first time ever.

Yay !! The team LuLu did it !

 

This is just awesome ! Huge congrats Lucie and Lukáš ! I´m so happy for them, especially Lukáš who missed Sochi with Federica Testa just by few and after all problems last year and a absolute restart with new partner Lucie Myslivečková who had the same problems in her previous career, they both finally managed to reach their dreams.

2 more groups to go, and it looks as if Galusyan is the only one that posted a challenging score thus far. Hope she makes it.

Ouch, 4 falls for Gjersem.

 

She won't be going to her second Olympics.

Singapore could be just 0.07 points off an Olympic quota, how painful!!

And Williams trolls herself onto another Olympics after being nowhere in the last few years...

 

Fun fact, she doesn't speak a word of Portuguese.
