This is the first time a JGP event is being held in Lithuania. I hope their internet connections are better than those they had for last week's event where there was a lot of buffering, etc. on the live feed.

I like Joseph Phan. More early mornings...oh boy. He's the 10th skater, so I can't get up too late. As always, thanks for all the info.

In the final group of the marathon junior ladies free skate, Alexandra Trusova attempted a quad lutz (ruled under rotated), fell on a fully rotated quad toe, and landed a quad combo (quad toe; triple toe). The combo scored the highest ever number of points for a block of jumps for a Lady, according to ISU records: 4T+3T = 16.14 (BV 13.70). Watch her full skate here: https://youtu.be/eJ3GvpMh_cE

She had a significant lead after the SP and went on to win the competition. The silver medalist, Yelim Kim from Korea, moved up from 4th after the SP. A second Russian, Kseniia Sinitsyna, placed third. This broke the strong of Russian 1-2 finishes from the previous two events.
