Daisuke Takahashi has announced that he'll be pulling out of Cup of China. He reportedly hurt his knee in practice last week, but hasn't pulled out of NHK yet. Takahashi always has interesting programs, so he was someone who I was really looking forward to seeing. He is also another skater who had a rough second half of the season last year and changed coaches afterwards, so I'm interested in how he's been holding up with that. In this year's mens field at the GP, we could really use him around.
This is horrible for Takahashi, but it should also be a hint to Evan Lysacek that maybe he shouldn't cross Seoul, Korea off of his list of travel destinations this year. With the mens competition looking like it is, his chances of making the final with his 3-3 finish at Skate America and Skate Canada are slightly wider.
