the 2003 US Figure Skating Championships begins today in Dallas, Texas!!!!
Michelle Kwan will be competiting in her 10th championships and will be going for a SEVENTH US Title. She has a total of 9 medals (6 golds and 3 silvers). Michelle's first win was in 1996 and won the last 5 Championships since 1998. Holds a record of 27 perfect scores of 6.0s in any discipline, surpassing legendary skaters Brian Boitano and Kristi Yamaguchi.
This week, she will be defending her title against 2002 Olympic Champion and US Bronze Medalist Sarah Hughes and 2002 Skate Canada and US Silver Medalist Sasha Cohen. The ladies short programs begins on thursday and the LADIES FREESKATE IS LIVE ON SATURDAY ON ABC!!!!!
She will be skating to "The Feeling Begins" for her SP and "Concierto de Aranjuez" for her Freeskate. Hopefully the TRIPLE-TRIPLE COMBINATION will be there on Saturday during her freeskate performance. I'm really anxious to see the ladies freeskate because it's going to be a TOUGH competition for Michelle!!!!
