Did Rachael Flatt Do a Triple Toe Loop?

Friday January 26, 2007
Rachael Flatt During the Ladies Short Program event at the 2007 State Farm U.S. National Figure Skating Championships, ESPN2's cameras showed Rachael Flatt land a triple lutz-triple toe loop combination, but Rachael's triple toe loop was downgraded to a double toe. Her scores reflected the downgrade and Rachael placed 6th after the short program. If the technical specialists had counted that move as a triple lutz-triple toe loop combination, Rachael may have finished closer to the top.

Cast your vote. Did Rachael Flatt do a triple lutz-triple toe loop?
