Team USA is poised for gold after taking maximum points in two more events on Day 2 of the ISU World Team Trophy. They go into the final day on 90 points – 15 points ahead of Korea, who themselves hold a slender one-point lead over hosts Japan in third. Reigning World Pairs silver medalists Alexa Knierim/Brandon Frazier got their team off to the best possible start by winning the Short Program with a personal best score of 82.25 points and 12 team points. Their precise performance to “Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)” featured a triple twist, side by side triple toe, throw triple flip and four level-four elements. ISU World Ice Dance Champions Madison Chock/Evan Bates then built on the lead further, claiming another 12 points with their first place in the Free Dance after giving a mesmerizing performance to “Souffrance” and “Les Tectoniques”. The ISU Four Continents Champions collected a level four on all elements to achieve a new record score of 138.41 points, surpassing the previous highest score of Gabriella Papadakis/Guillaume Cizeron (FRA) from the ISU World Championships a year ago. In the Women’s Free Skating, ISU Grand Prix Final silver medalist Isabeau Levito and Amber Glenn finished fourth and sixth respectively to add nine and seven points to the impressive team score.
