They were a no-show in Kiev and are on the list to compete in Chemnitz, but don t count on it until they actually appear on the warm up rink. The Ukranians have a second team entered as well, but again it s uncertain whether they will show. The game of musical partners creates a high level of anticipation, as the figure skating community is always anxious to see whether the new combinations are better than the old. They come into this event following their second-place finish in Mexico. A victory here would give them an outstanding chance at making the final.
Action gets underway in Chemnitz today with compulsory dance and the pair short program.
