I feel bad for Miyahara since she's such a hard-working, nice person and getting inconsistent calls on her jumps must be so frustrating and demotivating. :/ I honestly felt her calls were rather generous during the GPS, but judging from interviews her team seems to have felt she had fixed her jumps for good... and I can't blame them, based on the calling. And then this.
The top ladies' PCS are waaaaaay out of wack, Zagitova's TR and movements have been more and more labored this season and her winning the FS over Tuk based on PCS is pretty dumb. (But the Russian press needs to leave her alone.) Also, Tuk's 3Lz+3T has been SPOT ON since the test skates and she needs to bring it to the SP, dammit! (The sequence is intentional since she's using two 3T elsewhere and doesn't seem to like the loop much.)
