Note: Fu Tianyu was disqualified in Final A and is thus unranked. Sarah
Lindsay qualified for the semi-final after a disqualification but finished fifth
in her heat.
On February 16, Canada filed a protest with the Court of Arbitration for
Sport over the results of the Final A, but it was dismissed.[1] Evgenia Radanova
of Bulgaria, who won the Silver, crossed the finish line with part of one of her
skates in the air, which is against the rules. No judges noticed this during the
race or the video replay but it did happen. The International Olympic Committee
does not change results after they have been finalized based on video replay,
but the International Skating Union does. For example, they disqualified Fu
Tianyu from the A Final for cross-tracking (improperly crossing the course or
interfering with another skater)[2]. On February 17 the CAS dismissed the
appeal, with a written ruling expected on February 18. Regardless, the CAS has
no power to overturn an Olympic result, just to make recommendations to the
IOC.[3]
