Asada triumphs, French pair on course
GOTHENBURG, Sweden: France's Isabelle Delobel and Olivier Schoenfelder stayed on course for the ice dancing gold but Thursday belonged to Japan's Mao Asada who won the ladies event after recovering from a spectacular fall.
Preparing for what was supposed to be an opening triple Axel, the 17-year-old slipped and slid into the boards to the accompaniment of Chopin's Fantasie Impromptu.
