For those who don't know, only the countries who medal can send three figure skaters; the rest can only send two.

Is this a new rule?
Yamaguchi and Kerrigan both received medals in 1992, but the USA only sent two skaters to the Olympics in 1994. I think the number of skaters was based on how a team performed in the previous World Championship. 1993 was not a good year for the USA.
According to the local news, Emily Hughes should arrive at the Olympics on Thursday.
