Sasha Cohen Keeps Options Open

by Sasha Manuel on December 12th, 2006

According to the article I came across today, it seems that the current US Figure Skating Champion Sasha Cohen isn’t decided whether she’s going to defend her title in the US Figure Skating Championships, which is just two months away.

“I’ve been keeping my options open and been training to stay in shape,” Cohen said. “But I have not made any new programs.”The Seattle Times

However.

It’s been said that the 22-year old plans to compete in the 2010 Winter Olympics and in the 2009 World Championships.

Cohen has competed in six US Championships, placed second to Michelle Kwan four times before placing first when Kwan rested due to a hip injury.

    Can’t say I know what you mean cuz, sadly, I don’t. Though, being the reigning champion, she definitely should. I’m speculating that she might not want to risk injury since she’s eyeing the world championships and olympics perhaps?

    As I see it Sasha is and will be the best female ice skater EVER.
    Her spins and footwork are super.. only those jumps
