Julia Lipnitskaia: "I do not dwell ever think you won something,'' for me the important thing is to keep on going. We must always go on to work, you can never stand still in a situation, you must always move forward. Clearly, today I am very happy because everything went well, I did everything, everything worked especially the'' ultimate spinning top, which was very important to me. "(About the Olympic Games in Sochi)" First of all I have to get to Sochi, and to do that I have to pass the national championships and European championships. "
Akiko Suzuki: "I have thought long and very good at what music to choose for my Olympic season. When the choice fell on the Phantom of the Opera'' I thought it might be difficult to deal with a skating music from so many samples before me. But playing it here tonight, I saw a fantastic reaction from the audience that really helped me in my performance so I think this is a great program for me and for this season "
Gracie Gold: "'' It went pretty well, I did not make the perfect performance but I can not wait'' to get back to Los Angeles to train and better prepare for races even better on the occasion of'' NHK Trophy and national Americans. In any case I think it was a nice way to start the season with a bronze medal in an event of the Grand Prix "
Kaetlyn Osmond, who retired after the short program, explains his health problems: "I am very disappointed for withdrawal. The free program is my favorite and I was looking forward to'' show it to everyone. I was really prepared for this race, even though I only had a few weeks of training because of an ankle injury, but I restart it and everything was going very well. I would be thrilled to prove it. I am very disappointed, but it just means that I will be more ready for the next race. (With my team) we have already established a recovery plan starting Monday, when I get home get myself from this injury and perhaps will do well at the ankle, take a moment's rest to recover. It will mean that I will be in better shape and health in the next time. "
