16 year old Kimmie Meissner may have finished 6th at the Olympics, but she did considerably better than that at Worlds, outskating Fumie Suguri and Sasha Cohen to win the gold and $45,000. Meissner was the only skater in the contest to land two triple-triple jump combos.
Sasha Cohen was considered the favorite but had to settle for a third place finish.
In other skating news, Tanith Belbin and Ben Agosto captured gold, and Evan Lysacek captured bronze.
