Good luck Sasha! Have Fun!

For the Ladies' Free Skate, Sasha will be wearing a new red velvet dress and perform to Nina Rota’s soundtrack of "Romeo and Juliet". Enjoy.

NOTE: I will not post a spoiler. Enjoy the competition: the three top skaters in the world over the last two years are essentially tied. Irina is the 2005 World Champion. Shizuka is the 2004 World Champion. And Sasha is the 2004 and 2005 World Silver medalist and reigning US Champion.
