It just sunk in that the three female gymnasts representing the Philippines at the Olympics are Americans. Please tell me I’m not the only person who doesn’t like that
Charlene Guignard/Marco Fabbri 🇮🇹 124,76 / 209,75 and 🥇medal!

👀🔥 Once again, Aleksandr Galliamov proves he’s the ultimate "fanboy", unable to resist dropping a comment on Loena Hendrickx's new short program performance. Guess that's one way to catch her attention, huh? 🤷♂️
Today he posted on his Telegram channel:
"Letter V - Vulgar"
thoughts:
bradie: solid 1st outing, not rlly into the riverdance vibe yet
loena: ditch the choreographer plsss, and do some traditional skating music like a tango or carmen, i think you're overdue for something classy
chaeyeon: great outing! solid jumps continued...

“I'm super happy, I'm just really proud of myself with what I did today. I didn't have too many nerves, because people knew I could be in the top three. I wanted to make that happen, to say I am a good skater. I'm looking forward to Saturday.”

Misato Komatsubara and Tim Koleto 🇯🇵 have announced the end of their partnership. Komatsubara has decided to retire as a competitor, while Koleto is considering his options.

SURREAL. THAT is the statement?! Not one acknowledgement of the systemic failures that led to this catastrophic event?
@gymnastics
, new low.
Unbelievable.
And Alysa Liu’s free skate - based on those two programs, looks like tech is mostly back, working on cleaning up the 3-3 rotation, and stamina for a full free skate
it’s jia’s bday, we find out that haein brought sirens back, deanna is looking amazing, amber glenn switched her layout, yuma looks fire, young is back at worlds, today is a GOOD DAY
