The women's figure skating free program event was held today.
今日は女子フィギュアのフリープログラムが行われた。

I was looking forward to Mao who took 2nd place at SP getting a gold medal and I watched TV.
ショートプログラムで２位の真央ちゃんが金メダルを取れるか楽しみにテレビを見た。

First, Kim Yu-Na played the performance.
最初、キム・ヨナが演技をした。

It was the perfect performance.

Next was Mao's turn. I thought she had heavy pressure.
次は真央ちゃん番である。相当なプレッシャーがあったと思う。

Her performance started. First spin was perfect. But, The halfway spin failed.

Finally, she took a silver medal. However, I think she did her best.

I think her performance impress with all of the Japanese.
