Kaetlyn Osmond Wins World Figure Skating Championship Gold!
Congratulations to Kaetlyn! 45 years is a long time without a World Champion!
Quote:
Canada's Kaetlyn Osmond won the figure skating world title with a nearly perfect performance as Olympic champion Alina Zagitova fell a jaw-dropping three times and crowd favourite Carolina Kostner turned in a lackluster skate — both tumbling completely off the podium — in Milan, Italy, on Friday.
The win marks the first time a Canadian has held the title since Karen Magnussen captured gold in Bratislava, Czechoslovakia, 45 years ago.
Definitely a surprise.
Heartbroken Caro couldn't win the championship in front of her hometown fans, she's a fav of mine, but also overjoyed that KO was able to pull it off!
