Should have quit when the going was good. She wouldn't have helped US getting that coveted 3rd spot at the Olympic next year anyway. I think her downfall is trying too hard to be elegant. She's not an elegant skater and she should stick to what she does best: jumping. That's how she won her World title (along with Sasha squashing). I think with this injury, it's nail in the coffin for her figure skating career. Unless she somehow gets all her jumps back, I don't see her on the Olympic team next year or for that matter, skating in the amateur circuit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
