MARSEILLE, France -- Russian teen Evgenia Medvedeva and Japans Yuzuru Hanyu did not even need their best skating to successfully defend their Grand Prix Final titles on Saturday.The 17-year-old Medvedeva stumbled on her first jump and, being a strict perfectionist, this was still playing on her mind after the medal ceremony.I expected more from myself. I wanted to do more and I could have done more, she said. The mistake was hard to overlook. It happened to me for the first time that I missed that first (jump).Hanyu botched a quad salchow and failed to complete a triple lutz and yet still won a fourth straight title.But they had enough of a lead from their short programs, and also got some help from their rivals.I feel this was a really good experience, I learned something here, Hanyu said.As he skated to the haunting strings and piano of Hope and Legacy by Japanese composer Jo Hisaishi, the crowd was engrossed.Hanyu started well, executing his quad loop jump as if tip-toeing onto a velvet cushion, rather than landing on rock-hard ice. So when he fell on his quad salchow-triple toe loop attempt, the crowd gasped in surprise. But they still showered the arena with flowers at the end.Im able to connect with the audience, Hanyu said.His winning score of 293.90 put him way ahead of his established main rivals: Two-time former champion Patrick Chan of Canada and two-time world champion Javier Fernandez of Spain. Both failed to finish in the top three.Instead, 17-year-old American Nathan Chen got the best free score to finish second overall in his first senior Final with 282.85 points, doing just enough to beat 18-year-old Shoma Uno of Japan on 282.51.It came as a surprise to me to come out with a medal today, Chen said.Uno matched his third-place finish from last year.Chan was second after Thursdays short program, and Fernandez third.They both crumbled.Fernandez stumbled on his quad salchow attempt and fell on the next jump -- a triple axel -- to finish fourth overall.Chan did not skate like a three-time world champion, falling three times to drift down to fifth, with only American Adam Rippon behind him.Those patchy performances put Hanyus rare errors and Medvedevas blip into perspective.Medvedeva could afford to make a mistake, too, having scored a world record in the short program.When she came onto the ice for her free, the cheers were still echoing around the Palais Omnisports in Marseille following a clinical and elegant lead-grabbing performance from Japans Satoko Miyahara to the sounds of Gustav Holsts The Planets.Medvedeva appeared a little nervous, stumbling backward on the ice after landing awkwardly on a triple flip, triple toe loop.She glared at the ice, giving it a look of disdain.But this seemed to spur her on, and her triple lutz was perfect, as were the triple loop and triple flip.There is always a back-up plan, Medvedeva said.Gaining in confidence, the world champion executed a triple salchow-triple toe loop and then a double axel as if going through her training drills.When her winning score of 227.66 points came in, she wiped her brow. She need not have, because the scores did not end up close.Miyahara scored 218.33 as she finished runner-up for a second time.Anna Pogorilya made it two Russian women on the podium, rising up to third on 216.47.Earlier, former Olympic champions Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir won the ice dance, clinching the elusive title for the first time in their comeback year.Leading after the short program, the Canadians won comfortably, scoring 197.22 to beat French pair Gabriella Papadakis and Guillaume Cizeron by more than four points (192.81).World silver medalists Maia and Alex Shibutani, who are brother and sister, were second overnight but the Americans dropped to third with 189.60.Virtue and Moir, who are also two-time world champions, returned to competitive skating this year after two years away.They won gold at the 2010 Games on home ice in Vancouver, and took silver two years ago at the Sochi Games in Russia behind Americans Merly Davis and Charlie White.They were also second to Davis and White in the Final for three consecutive years from 2012-14, but there was no stopping them this time.

The Browns coaching search remains incomplete. Cheap NFL Jerseys . The CFLs leading rusher kept adding to his gaudy numbers this season and scored the winning touchdown with just over two minutes to play. The New Westminster, B.C., native plowed three yards into the end zone for the last score of a heated, see-saw battle between the two teams with the best records in the CFL. Saturday, kick-off 17:00 MurrayfieldVern Cotter spoke about how Scotland have to become masters of their own destiny after their one-point defeat to Australia last week. Once again the Scots combined the sublime in attack with missed tackles in defence and came up short.But the fact that Scotland came so close with a relatively young and inexperienced side provided optimism. Now they have to deliver on that against an Argentinian team whose error-strewn performances cost them in the Rugby Championship and were fortunate to be still in the game in the final quarter against Wales.For both, this game provides a chance of redemption. Argentina will hope they can build on their four-point defeat in Cardiff and put what has been a poor season behind them.Team newsCotter makes four changes, including debutant Magnus Bradbury who starts in the back-row. Former Scotland captain Grant Gilchrist starts at lock, while Fraser Brown comes into the front row.Tommy Seymour replaces Tim Visser on the wing in the only chance to an explosive back-line that featured against the Wallabies. Huw Jones who grabbed a brace last week continues his partnership at centre with Alex Dunbar.Argentina only make one change with Santiago Cordero coming in on the wing, having scored a brace against Japan in their opening Test this Autumn.Scotland: Hogg, Maitland, Jones, Dunbar, Seymour, Russell, Laidlaw; Dell, Brown, Fagerson, Gilchrist, J Gray, Bradbury, Watson, Barclay. Replacements: Ford, Allan, Low, Swinson, Wilson, Price, Horne, Visser.Argentina: Tuculet, Moroni, Orlando,, Hernandez, Cordero, Sanchez, Landajo; Noguera, Creevy, Herrera, Petti, Alemanno, Matera, Ortega Desio, Isa.ddddddddddddReplacements: Montoya, Botta, Pieretto, Senatore, Leguizamon, Cubelli, De la Fuente, Estelles.Key head-to-headIt is going to be a huge battle in midfield, with 34 year-old Juan Martin Hernandez coming up against the new kid on the block Huw Jones. Hernandez showed glimpses of his former greatness against Wales but he isnt the force he used to be. Jones was brilliant against Australia and showed he will take some dislodging from that midfield spot. If Hernandez can stop Jones, it could go some way in deciding the game.Key stats* Argentina hold a 9-6 lead in the 15 Tests played between the two teams.* Scotland have won their last two Tests, both coming in 2014.* The 41-31 victory for Scotland in November 2014 was Vern Cotters first home game in charge.WeatherIt will be dry in Edinburgh on Saturday, but temperatures could get to as low as two degrees. Luckily the rain looks set to stay away which should see good attacking rugby from both teams.VerdictScotland are favourites after coming so close against Australia last week, but Argentina showed against Wales that if you dont take your chances, they can prove difficult to put away. It has been a long and difficult season for Los Pumas and a third straight victory for the Scots should be expected come Saturday evening. Itll be close -- Scotland by 5.
