Warm-Up Group 1 on ice.
Meier singled lutz. Phaneuf-nice 3Z.
Sarah Meier went over to the referee in a distraught manner and it looks like she is going to withdraw. No announcement has been made.
Becky Bereswill (USA)
2A-good
2Z-flutzed, bailed out in air, double footed
Nice spiral extension
3R-landed with nice spiral preceding it
2A-looked like she was going to tack on a combo but didn't; low landing
3F-UR
3Z-flutz, possible two-foot
Footwork doesn't match the music
1T-bailed out in air
Very flexible skater but at times quite awkward looking.

Oksana Gozeva (Russia)
3Z-good
1R
3F-good
3S-solid
2Z+2T+2T-landed
2A-good height
Great speed in catch foot layback
2A-turned out
Good final spin
Finished after music
Very mundane program. Gozeva has little expression or personality but does have a fair amount of spring in her jumps and speed in her spins.

3S-held on
Spin combo traveled
Very bent free leg in standard spiral
3F-fall; possible UR
Relatively weak donut spin
Slip in footwork
2S
3T(possible UR)+2T
Very flat performance. Speed is decent but doesn't express herself well to the audience.

1S
2A-good
2A-not as good as first but landed
Spiral-nice speed, positions inadequate
2S+2T-landed
2A-good
2F+2T-landed
Good speed in footwork
Last two spin combos-good speed, traveled a little
Very pleasant skater to watch. Skates with solid speed and does make an effort to relate to the audience. Mature but simplistic program choreographically.

Sarah Meier has withdrawn.
Cynthia Phaneuf (Canada)
Skating her "Mission Cleopatra" long program from last season
3T+2A+SEQ-good
1Z
3R+2T-good
3R-forward on landing but landed
3S-good
Weak extension on spiral
3Z-fall
3T+2T+2R-good
Strange, so she just switched the 3F with the 3R on a dime? Because had she done the lutz in the beginning she would have been repeating three triples. Smart decision because her flip is not a good jump. Very mature program that suits her well, but quite simplistic choreographically. Very behind music the entire way but somehow managed not to go overtime.

Warm-up Group 2 on ice. Leonova landed 3R. Nakano landed 3F.
Ando fell out of 2A+3T (UR). Wagner looks relaxed.
Ando good 3Z. Wagner good 3R.
Warm-up has concluded.
Yan Liu (China)
3Z-decent
3F-pretty good
3R-turned out slightly
Weak Bielmann
Adequate spiral
2S+1T+1R-landed
3T+2A+SEQ-good; possible slight cheat on 3T
2A-good
Footwork relatively slow
1S-spiral preceding it
Yan Liu is somewhat elegant but is unbelievably boring. Makes Rachael Flatt look like Katarina Witt.

Alena Leonova (Russia)
3T+3T(possible UR)-step out
Spirals not good but improved from last season.
3Z-held on
2A-good
3R-good
3F+2T(slightly toe-axeled)-landed
Flying deathdrop to sit spin-traveled slightly
3S+2T+Tano2R-very good
3F-good
Best long program from her so far this season. Should ditch the 3T+3T because the combo has failed her four out of four tries. Excellent energy, very fun to watch.

Spin combos well centered
2A-solid
1R
Adequate spiral
2A-solid
2S+1T+2T-landed

Yukari Nakano (Japan)
2A+2A+SEQ-good
3F+2T-good
2Z
Great donut spin
Good spiral
3F-UR
3S+2T+2R-good
3T-possible slight UR but landed
3S-UR; fall
Great spins throughout
The program is not nearly as strong as her "Giselle" LP from last season. She hardly gets into the character of the music and portrays it, which is a shame because she has been making strides artistically over the past several seasons.

Miki Ando (Japan)
3Z-fell out
2A+2T-good but didn't do intended 2A+3T
Nice low sit spin
3R-very good
Spiral extension relatively poor
3S-good
3Z-good but will only count as a sequence because neither had a combo
3T+2R(UR)-nearly fell
2A-good
Very good expression in step sequence
Final spin combo traveling
A good program for Miki. Has some kinks to work out with the jumps but she did demonstrate more expression and choreography than several of her past programs.
