Ashley Wagner said she was “absolutely furious,” underscored and that she deserved a spot on the three-woman U.S. Olympic team despite finishing fourth at nationals on Friday.
“I’m furious. I am absolutely furious,” Wagner,a three-time U.S. champion, Olympian and 2016 World silver medalist, said minutes after the event ended. “I know when I go and I lay it down, and I absolutely left one jump on the table. But for me to put out two programs that i did at this competition, as solid as I skated, and to get those scores, I am furious, and I think deservedly so.
