  did not send anyone here...

 

Since this is the main Olympic qualifier, this decision is just bizarre and absolutely inexcusable.

 

 

The federation president arguing that The pandemic caused our athletes were unable to fully prepare and train for this important competition (the only one of the whole season!!!). It would not be reasonable to send anyone to this championship, we will hopefully be able to fight for the Olympics in September in Germany, where we aim to send someone in the women's competition (apparently there still slim chances of a return of Nicole Rajičová).

You can't send just anyone though. There are minimum requirements, which happen to be more strict than even those for the Olympics.

Just looked at the entries and I do believe we have certainly at least someone who could be there easily

Aside from Rajicova? Who?

[dcro 10,210]

First withdrawals due to positive tests...

 

Safonova (ladies), Hayrapetyan (mens), Holichenko / Darenskyi (pairs)...

I don´t know, maybe Marco Klepoch or Michal Neuner among mens, Monika Simančíková, Alexandra Filcová or Ema Doboszová among womens would certainly beat skaters from the 1st groups

Well, minimum requirements are out of reach for all of these (and Simancikova appears to be in retirement).

 

TES minimum requirement for the short program (ladies) - 30.00

Doboszova (PB) - 25.04

FIlcova (PB) - 24.09

 

TES minimum requirement for the short program (men) - 34.00

Klepoch (PB) - 27.88

Neuner (PB) - 32.34

 

Based on this, athletes who qualified for Stockholm would easily finish ahead. Minmum requirements are that high.

What are the quota expectations here? I have no idea if we have a chance here or not. I don't expect anything from Láng for example, this will her first big senior competition.

Still hurts seeing Forunier Beadry/Sørensen competing for Canada
