JGP Latvia Mens Preview

This is a relatively young field as 11 of the skaters are making their debut on the Junior Grand Prix.  None of the skaters here medaled last season on the JGP.  The big contendors will be Jiaxing Liu of China, Stanislav Pertsov of Ukraine and Viktor Romanenkov of Estonia.  Liu has competed in 4 JGP events and his best finish was 4th place.  Romanenkov has competed in 8 JGP events and his best finish was 8th place.  Pertsov has competed in 6 JGP events and his best finish was 6th place.  This experience should help them against the youngsters to earn their first medals.

Two new skaters to the JGP circuit could pull off the upset here.  Canada's Nam Nguyen and Emmanuel Savary of the USA are both 13 and newly eligible to compete on the Grand Prix.  Both competed as juniors nationally last season and have impressed with their skills at their young age.  Savary has one international event under his belt which he won in the novice division.  Nguyen has gained a lot of national fame which could cause him to rise to the occasion or feel the pressure.  If either of them skate clean, they could find themselves in medal contention.
