Stoica said he is upset for the mistake made by Sandra Izbasa on the floor. "Sandra had an incomplete 1080 twist at the end, and the referees sanctioned her. This is an old problem of Sandra’s and in such cases the referees follow these elements closely. It’s a shame about the result!" Adrian Stoica added.

Flavius Koczi - rank 5, Marius Berbecar – rank 22.
