I can't recall any head-to-head competition between Nancy and Kristi (short and/or long program, amateur and/or professional) wherein Nancy outskated or outmarked Kristi! So KERSTENFANATIC, your statement is totally FLAWED!
What??? Kristi landed 6 triples - 4 different types - and only fell on the salchow (her nemesis). Nancy doubled the flip, singled the lutz, and fell out of the loop. Kristi landed all of these triple jumps, plus her triple-triple was harder than Nancy's (lutz-toe vs. toe-toe). No one in this final group was perfect, but Kristi was the closest.
Beg your pardon 'kerstenfanatic'?? There was no comparison between the 2. Nancy was terrible here and VERY lucky to get on the podium. Laetitia Hubert was robbed of a medal. I think the Silver was a gift for the home fans as Nancy did not deserve it.
Since when did Nancy ever beat Kristi (short or long program/amateur or professional) in a head-to-head competition? I can't recall any instance wherein Kristi ranked lower than Nancy at any competitions so your statement is FLAWED! Kristi DESERVED this gold medal! GO KRISTI!
@kerstenfanatic wow you really don't know how to watch figure skating. ur just a kerrigan fan and thinks she's good even when she's bad. ur going against even the facts. By scoring rules, no way would Kerrigan get a higher score than Kristi here. Not only by opinion+artistic impression did Kristi obviously outskate Nancy, Kristi also won by technical value. . side note, Kristi was always WAY above Nancy in execution, technical difficulty, and artistry. That's why her career record trumps Nancy's
@kerstenfanatic ALSO, u need about 2 triple lutzes (which kristi did) to equal a 3-axel. AND one of those was a 3-lutz 3-toe, the closest combo to combat the 3-axel, meaning kristi well-exceeded the 3-axel on the lutzes alone. Kerrigan popped the lutz (worse than falling), didn't even land her 3toe-3-toe combo cleanly (her only combo, & difficulty= garbage), fell on the 3loop, doubled the flip. just a 3-salchow n 3toe landed cleanly. kristi also does harder jump entries n overall. u r so off
I CANT BELIEVE SHE DID A JUMP SIT SPIN

A beautifully polished program in spite of the fall on the triple salchow (her nemesis). This was pure Kristi at her finest!

The gold was a gift for the home fans. She did not outskate Kerrigan here!
