Close win for Nakai (JPN) Reigning ISU World Junior bronze medalist Ami Nakai of Japan edged Korean newcomer Yuseong Kim for gold by less than one point in the Junior Women’s event. Nakai was the top favorite and took the lead in the Short Program skating to “Baby, God Bless You” with a clean performance. While her Free Skating to “Glimmer of Faith” and “Only Hope” was highlighted by six clean triples and level-four spins, the 15-year-old lost points on an error on her planned triple Axel that she popped into a double and also by repeating one double Axel too many (190.65 points). Nakai collected her second ISU Junior Grand Prix gold medal after winning in Gdansk (POL) last year. “I popped the triple Axel today, so I’ll make sure to land it in my next Junior Grand Prix event. I’m going to Turkey,” Nakai said.  The ISU Junior Grand Prix Series is live! The next generation of up and coming young Figure Skaters started off with an exciting competition in Bangkok (THA) with Ami Nakai (JPN), Rio Nakata (JPN) and Ice Dancers Leah Neset/Artem Markelov (USA) taking the top prizes. It was also a premiere for Thailand, that hosted an ISU Junior Grand Prix event for the very first time  |
