Canada's Gabrielle Daleman and Kaetlyn Osmond dominated the women's short program at the ISU Four Continents figure skating championships on Thursday.
Canada's Olympic ice dance champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir also lead after the short program.
Daleman opened her program to music from the ballet “Herodiade” with a triple toe-triple toe combination en route to scoring 68.25 points. Her only miscue was a slight bobble on the landing of her triple Lutz.
“It was a fight tonight, but I'm happy with what I was able to accomplish and with the overall package,” said the 19-year-old from Newmarket, Ont. “It's been great competing in Korea for my second Four Continents and it is just so motivational and inspiring to compete in the Olympic rink.”
The Four Continents is a test event for the 2018 Pyeongchang Olympics.
Osmond, a 21-year-old from Marystown, N.L., fell on the landing of her double Axel and was second with 68.21 points. Elizabet Tursynbaeva of Kazakhstan was third with 66.87.
