S. Korean Wins Second Skate America

LAKE PLACID, N.Y. (AP) ― World champion Kim Yu-na has won her second straight Skate America title despite losing the free skate Sunday to American Rachael Flatt.

Kim made two major mistakes, including a fall on the triple flip -- the one element on which she has struggled at times. That left enough of an opening for Flatt, the U.S. runner-up last January, to take the free program 116.11 points to 111.70.

But Kim had such a large lead after her surpassing short program that she took the gold medal by more than 13 points.

Julia Sebestyen of Hungary finished third.
