She did not have 4 falls, b-man, she was dinged automatically after 3 in this judging system. Kaetlyn is a beautiful skater who had an off day. Judges recognized her presentation qualities and other aspects including, the best 3F/3T and 2A/3T of the competition. She finished 6th in the LP, and 4th overall, due to a decent SP.
Her PCS scores were still absurd. Those three falls were a huge disruption to the program and it did not flow in any way shape or form. The performance quality was NOT at her usual level. She was scored on rep imo nothing more. She certainly deserves such high marks when she hits but not when she clearly BOMBS a program so badly. A lower ranked skater would have been buried in the standings after three falls. Kaetlyn shouldn't have been any higher than 7th or 8th after that FS. She was overscored in the SP too imo. In any event, thank goodness she was at least kept off of the podium after such a disastrous skate. I'm happy the right three skaters won the medals, as it should be.
