The free dance results mirrored Thursday’s rhythm dance placements with Viktoria Sinitsina and Nikita Katsalapov taking the win (130.15), followed by Italy’s Charlene Guignard and Marco Fabbri (124.75) and Americans Kaitlin Hawayek and Jean-Luc Baker (110.16; 10 points for the team).
Three-time reigning world champ Nathan Chen won the men’s free skate (203.24) over Japan’s two-time reigning Olympic champion Yuzuru Hanyu (193.76), just as he had at world championships three weeks prior. Chen had four quadruple jumps in his program, while Hanyu had three (and singled a planned quad salchow).
“After worlds were cancelled last year, to be able to have a competition truly means a lot as an athlete; to be able to perform, to be able to compete in front of people,” Chen said. “I’m truly grateful.”
After placing fifth in the short, Russia’s Mikhail Kolyada was third (180.72), earning 10 valuable points for his country’s total. Jason Brown was third in the short program but placed eighth in the free (160.33; 5 team points) after errors that included falling on his triple lutz, popping a triple axel and under-rotating his opening quad salchow.
“I’m very proud of my team’s fight today,” Brown said as U.S. team captain. “You know, we really fought out there… I cannot wait for tomorrow, I’ll get to be there the whole day with my teammates, so we’re going to go crazy in in the kiss and cry and cheer on our teammates. It’s going to be an awesome day.”
