I know some people would hate me for saying this, but, I am so happy for her that she was able to win a world (senior) medal without making much progress after this...

well said, that summarizes her career very well.

Caryn Kadavy was more of a Peggy Fleming armed with a 3Loop while Holly Cook was a Trixie Schuba. Your comparison is Apple to Kiwis.
Holly Cook was a brilliant figure skater, not freeskate, and she was the last of that type of skater to get on the World Podium and rightfully so! If she was will to spend more than a decade mastering figures at the World level then the judges should have at least rewarded her the last time they could rather than acting like that work didn't matter.

Considering she had about half the talent of say Caryn Kadavy who won 1 world bronze, same as Holly Cook, I would say she got very lucky in her career. Also at the 1990 Worlds many women who skated better then her were lowballed in the marks.

Muffycat,
When people are lucky as many times as you claim Holly was lucky, it normally is not luck.
Holly was very good at the things to which the audience did not pay attention, but they were, none the less, legitimate parts of the competition.
Holly was consistently top 3 in figures and top 6 in the Original Program and Freeskate, which translated to consistent respectable top 4-5 finishes and bronze medals when others faltered. HARD WORK is not luck. Being born with talent is luck.

I cant believe the US judge marked her lowest here among all the nations!

How she got on the podium? She was lucky the field that year sucked and had only 3 real good skaters: Ito, Yama, and Jill. She was lucky Yama sucked at figures. She was lucky Trenary bombed the SP so didnt finish between Yama and herself. She was lucky Yama fell in the LP, placed behind Jill and only 1 spot above Cook. Same way Jill was lucky to win gold over Ito, Cook was lucky to win bronze. Cook was also overmarked, Lebedeva and Neske had better SP and LP but were not marked as high.

interesting how i see no growth from this performance to her world performance. How she ever got on a world podium is flabbergasting
