  • Frank Carroll coached both the senior men's and senior ladies champions, the first time one coach had trained two senior champions since Richard Callaghan did it in 1997 with Tara Lipinski and Todd Eldredge. Eldredge placed second here.
  • Sibling pairs team Danielle Hartsell & Steve Hartsell were nearly forced to withdraw before the event after he fell on his head during practice. He required 12 stitches, but they went on to win the short program and the bronze medal overall.

Famous quotes containing the words competition and/or notes:

    “The elements of success in this business do not differ from the elements of success in any other. Competition is keen and bitter. Advertising is as large an element as in any other business, and since the usual avenues of successful exploitation are closed to the profession, the adage that the best advertisement is a pleased customer is doubly true for this business.”
    —Madeleine [Blair], U.S. prostitute and “madam.” Madeleine, ch. 5 (1919)

    “The soft complaining FLUTE
    In dying Notes discovers
    The Woes of hopeless Lovers,
    Whose Dirge is whisper’d by the warbling LUTE.”
    —John Dryden (1631–1700)
