Yeah, I kind of feel sorry for Michelle Kwan as well, she was amongst the favourite to win a gold medal in the previous olympics and it's a shame she doesn't get a chance to try for the elusive gold medal one more time...25 is actually consider extremely old for an olympian (in figure skating), if I'm not mistaken, if Slutskaya wins gold, she would be the oldest female figure skater to win gold? (not too sure though).
And I wasn't a big fan of Sarah Hughes...so I'm not a big fan of her sister either...
