dcro 10,179 Posted March 22, 2022 #2 Share Posted March 22, 2022 Both Italian pairs withdrew today after testing positive for COVID. Pairs competition will be wack. No ROC, no China. Both will be reduced to just one entry next year (assuming ROC even returns, doubtful). Not that China has worthy successors of Sui/Han. The field is so thin that might be getting Top 10 finish. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted March 23, 2022 #3 Share Posted March 23, 2022 Brave performance from the Ukrainian pair. They did triples at the Olympics, only doubles here obviously due to lack of training. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vic Liu 1,576 Posted March 24, 2022 #4 Share Posted March 24, 2022 China didn't attend or broadcast the WCH but #Malinin is trending no.4 on Weibo now as the only trending word related to winter sports. His jumping is quite impressive but I don't know he's that popular in China. opruh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opruh 125 Posted March 24, 2022 #5 Share Posted March 24, 2022 It's like an amateur competition, the real contenders did not even join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted March 24, 2022 #6 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Japan totally blows it. Miura was all over the place. Medal for James/Radford. EDIT: Or not. What a gift from judges. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted March 24, 2022 #7 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Dear Lord. Ashley Cain fell on the jump and stayed down. Program aborted. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcro 10,179 Posted March 24, 2022 #8 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Well, at least the champions skated cleanly and posted a PB. This would have been worthy of a top 4 in Beijing. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grassmarket 2,745 Posted March 24, 2022 #9 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Brutal Putinesque purge of the Commentary team. The International Skating Union has replaced its World Championships commentators after they made offensive remarks about Canadian former world champion Meagan Duhamel. British commentator Simon Reed called the 36-year-old the "bitch from Canada" at the end of Wednesday's pairs event in Montpellier, France, apparently thinking his microphone was turned off. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/winter-sports/60862927 dcro and phelps 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
