Team Event is a new event for figure skating. Similar to gymnastics really. The top 10 countries ranked in skating get to participate and have one entry in each discipline . Mens Ladies Pairs Dance

by Sophie Ohayon via twitter 2/8/2014 7:28:28 PM
I am surprised actually because it has been a long road to make our sport fair and respected again ... and we've accomplished that . I find the story and allegations nothing to worry about . The new system is fair and the skaters will be judged fairly ... I
truly believe this .

@Lizmanley88 Besides winning, what is the best part of the Olympics? #CBCSkate #WeAreWinter #Sochi2014 @CBCOlympics @CDNOlympicTeam
