Beating Russia by a mere point, Team USA took the World Team Trophy last weekend in Tokyo. Woohoo!
The win wasn't by a landslide, but it has to feel good at the end of an exhausting competitive year. Gracie Gold won the short, Jason Brown came in second in the long, Ashley Wagner came in 4th in both, Alexa Scimeca and Chris Knerim came in third in the pairs long, and Madison Chock and Evan Bates hit second in the short dance (third in the long).
Russian skater Elizaveta Tuktamysheva banged out another flawless 3axel, this time in her free program (she fell on the one she tried in the short). She. Is. Awesome.
Here's a more comprehensive breakdown of the event and scores.
