Now that I finally finished my texts on the Olympics (better late than never!), A brief overview of the world championships which begin on Tuesday. The World
ahead very interesting, despite the absence of several big names ...
Ladies (26 and 27 March)
Olympic medalists present: Yu-Na Kim and Mao Asada. The
absent: At first glance, it seems that there is Joannie Rochette, bronze medalist in Vancouver, who officially withdrew on Monday. It is replaced by Samson Samson, 3rd and 8th at the Canadian championships at the Four Continents 2010.
Coming up: Mirai Nagasu (4th - 2010 Olympics), Miki Ando (5th - 2010 Olympics), Laura Lepisto (6th - 2010 Olympics), Akiko Suzuki (8th - 2010 Olympics), Rachael Flatt (7th - OJ 2010). Which of her 2
Russian representatives will rank the highest, Ksenia Makarova (10th - OJ 2010) and Alena Leonova (9th - 2010 Olympics)? Surprises and disappointments
:
Does Carolina Kostner will rise from the ashes left to Vancouver (16th)?
Is Kiira Korpi (11th - OJ 2010), Sarah Meier (15th - 2010 Olympics), Elena Glebova (21st - OJ 2010), Elene Gedevanishvili (14th - OJ 2010), Julia Sebestyen (17th - OJ 2010) crack the top 10?
Wish: A top 10 for Cynthia Phaneuf!
Couples (23 and 24 March)
Olympic medalists present: Pang Qing / Tong Jian and Aliona Savchenko / Robin Szolkowy.
Absentees: Shen Xue / Zhao Hongbo replaced by Huibo Dong / Yiming Wu; Tatiana Volsozhar / Stanislav Morozov ... Morozov is rumored that he retired.

Wish: along with pairs Caydee Denney / Jeremy Barrett and Amanda Evora / Mark Ladwig rankings get enough to keep 2 seats for the United States ... Question to swallow the words of one John Baldwin ...

Is Anna Cappellini / Luca Lanotte (12th - OJ 2010) could cause a surprise or Federica Faiella / Massimo Scalla (5th - OJ 2010) * finally * climb on the podium world?

Surprises or disappointments:
Will Brian Joubert will rise from the ashes left again on an Olympic site (17e)?
Is Jeremy Abbott will end his season best last year? Which
Kevin Van Der Perren will be present in Turin?
Is Nobunari Oda has settled its problems yaw?
Is Denis Ten succeed in presenting two programs without faults?
Greetings: Kevin Reynolds shows how the Canadian federation it was wrong to not trust him for the Olympics.
Artem Borodulin and Sergei Voronov obtain sufficient rank to allow Russia to retain its 2 places ... Like that Plushenko will stop thinking he is the savior of Russia and a chance to his knees and take a good rest of the warrior more than deserved.
