Would be very bad news for the organisers of that competition if this is the case.

Interesting that they’re only sending 2 to Jesolo.

ETA: I wonder what happened to Zoey Molomo? And these scores are a good bit higher than Winter Cup. “Ah, yeah, you all were a little too harsh at Winter Cup. Maybe be slightly kinder with the scores?”

Izzy Stassi was added to the Junior world team, along with the 2 auto qualifiers.

 

[Bob]

can we dare to think that they want the seniors to have realistic scoring and Jessohigh was not sending the right message to make corrections.

 

[RedBirdie]

Lauren Hopkins said on Twitter it was a budget issue. They planned on doing both, then decided only to do DTB.

 

[MaryClare]

Budget issue sounds concerning

Budget issue

It was bound to catch up sooner or later. First there were the scandals then COVID effects on having events and the lower ticket sales.

 

[irichluck21]

I guess OOFUS and Angi’s List don’t fork out the dough.

ETA: I wonder what happened to Zoey Molomo?

She only did bars and beam and must have fallen on beam because she scored in the 11s.
