Competition notes

* Although placing second, senior ice dancers Tanith Belbin & Benjamin Agosto were not placed on the Olympic team due to citizenship problems. Third place finishers Melissa Gregory & Denis Petukov, who would under normal circumstances been the first alternates, also were ineligible due to citizenship problems. Fourth place finishers Beata Handra & Charles Sinek were therefore the second entry to the Olympic team. It was their first World level competition.
