Tessa and Scott: Class of their own.

Gabby and Guillaume: I salute her professionalism for staying calm and tried her best in the program. However, this program doesn't have enough spark and fire to earn more PCS than Virtue/Moir.

Hubbell/Donohue: Basically tied with Shibsibs, which I am actually ok with. Their program is well constructed, their movements and interpretation is sensational.

Shibsibs: If it's the technicals that hurt them, they should be aware. It has happened MANY times this season already. They are lucky to still be able to get 77 for that.

Anna and Luca: She sold the hell out of it. I always like this pair. They have some special quality that is so admirable.

AAAAAAAND the FD order is out. Tessa and Scott skate last. The gold is theirs.

So apparently, H/D didn't extend their leg in their twizzle for enough turns so that's why it was only a Level 3.

What power? At europeans I saw them live and they were the slowest couple in the top 10. He is great, yes. But Gabby... Well, I can say that she is better than Maddy at least.

Sorry not sorry but you must have missed C/L then. They have a real speed issue.

C/L better in Team event, oh well.

true which suggests they were overmarked here especially since they beat B/S who were better than their team shortdance yet ended up behind CLhere - go figure.

I really need someone to explain how the heck H/D and P/C got so high scores in PE, IN and CO when they are the least 2 teams who skated to a “latin performance”. H/D could have been skating to anything and P/C just so focused on not being a disaster. Sure score them high in SS and TR but the teams who skated to despacito/ lower teams should have scored higher in PE, IN and TR

H/D was way overscored in PE, IN and CO when their program has ZERO latin feel to it. They could have been skating to anything. No way that was better than the shibs. B/S and C/L benefited from skating in the last group especially C/L bigggg time. P/C score was the biggest wth/f in of the night. Sorry for the costume disaster but their PCS was a joke. Sure give them highest score in SS and TR but PE,IN and CO should be around 8 only

I’m their huge fan but today wasn’t their best in terms of selling it. Still, kudos for keeping their composure which I’m sure was their goal

Is there a draw for skating order, or is it just based on where you finish in SD?

Be prepared. PC are your Olympic champions. To score so close with that program and win the PCS.....in what world were they better than VM?????!!! ***&^&%&%^$&%&*^*jjudges

Oh dear I was right. Technically they were not as fast or smooth as the Canadians. Artisticaly tehy did not have the passion nor the edges or surety - andthey are better in the FD. Gold PC. Sorry Canada it seems clear you are destined to be second at best.
