Posted in: Russia's Sotnikova stuns Kim to win figure skating gold; Asada 6th See in context
Most athelets and audiences, except for Koreans, wondered the impossibily inflated score of Yuna Kim in her Vancoover Olympic. Russian skater was stolen her gold from an American skater at Saltlake Olympic. Figure skating is all corrupt, and at least Kim is the favourite of the judges, being given lots of extra GOE points for something not worth.
It is well known that Korean judges always inflate Kim's scores and some other judges are bribed to give points and dismiss wrong edges, etc. In any event, her technical components weren't that difficult compared to Stonikova, and her execution of spins, steps and spiral was quite poor. She probably knows it herself. She skated better before.
I am really surpirsed that Kim's free-skating score was higher that those of Asada or Kostner whose degree of execution was much much better and moving, and Asada doing a much more difficult programme that none other can do.
