undeserved Olympic Champion Adelina Sotnikova (RUS) out for the season, she won't defend her title in Pyeongchang (she wouldn't have any chance in any case :whistle:)...

Huge blow to russian figure skating.

Apparently Yulia Lipnitskaya ended her career. Adelina Sotnikova is injured and will miss the whole season (including the olympics). I am sure that russia will find other medal contenders, but i am absolutely shocked by the news about Lipnitskaya, she has been one of my favorite athletes ever since the 2014 olympics, now i wont have anyone to cheer for at the olympics, without Lipnitskaya and Asada.

Here is a video of the legendary performance by Lipnitskaya from Sochi:

Mexico can't take it's best skater in women's (the first one to qualify for a Jr World Champs free skate) because she's under the selection age.

 

Meanwhile, Carrillo in men's improved a little bit his FS last weekend at Jr. World Grand Prix... I don't think he will be in contention for a place, but I'll be happy with a new PB in either program and of course in total.

Lipnitskaya apparently has serious problems with anorexia...

so, the situation is a lot more scaring than just having stopped her skating career...

I hope she can recover and get well again, sooner or later (possibly as soon as possible)...

    • Well, I see that the national competition between mixed doubles and also men increased. Also actually amongst women, too. Before it was mostly Kubeskova team that participated in some international events. This year, Synackova team did really well in the pre-qualification just the final qualification was not that good. But curling is about details. Generally, I am glad to see that there is really much higher competition than it was 10 years ago. And seeing Chabickovsky a Zelingerova making it to the Olympics in such a young age can be really promising for their career as curling is becoming more professional, as we see Grand Slams and other big tournaments.    As for now, I think that in Milano Team Klima and mixed doubles can make really interesting results. After all, they will finish in top 10 so just qualifying to the Games is already a huge achievement

    • Please do not bring this idea to Sindo  
    • Tahli/Dean    Probably just as disappointed as the Australians on here are
    • Gotta feel for  defending world bronze medalists, but couldn't make it to the Olympics
    • with a steal of 3 in the 8th end,  can't make the last shot to stay alive.
    • Oh yea.  Seemed like they were starting to get some less than elite pitchers, but the commits they've had in the last 12 hours have been stellar.  Now the staff feels like an embarrassment of riches.  They have 3 elite starters and a bunch of guys that can eat innings.  Thrilled what Mark DeRosa has been able to put together.
    • It looks like you guys will be juuuuust fine.   Tarik Skubal, Logan Webb, Joe Ryan and Nolan McLean all committed within the last couple of days.
    • Yay for no disqualifications! Thanks @OlympicIRL for all the work! Getting close.
