Well I read from the FR experts that Gu wasn’t good enough to make the US team....the first US finisher was in #11. Did the US girl have bad luck?

FR experts may have confused Gu with another American/Chinese ice skater who was not good enough for the US team. She fell twice in competition....don’t recall the name.

Gu was likely paid to compete for China, who do not allow dual citizenship, so Gu is theoretically no longer a US citizen.

She will be lauded as TV does nothing but attempt to create stars. Gu played it all too cute for my taste during her finals runs.

I hope she is shunned just as viewers are shunning the Beiing games.
