Career

Ando made history at the 2002 Junior Grand Prix Final, where she became the first female skater to land a quadruple jump. She remains the only lady to ever perform this feat. Ando showed promise on the junior scene, twice winning the Junior Grand Prix Final and becoming the 2004 World Junior Champion.

Ando had a poor 2005-2006 season, ending with her lowest scoring performance at the 2006 Olympics. She placed 15th after twice falling in her free skate and falling on her quad attempt. Ando did not compete at the World Championships the following month. Soon afterwards, she decided to move from the United States back to Japan for training. She also decided to change coaches, from Carol Heiss Jenkins to Nikolai Morozov. (Redirected from 2006 Olympics) See also: 2006 Winter Paralympics The XX Olympic Winter Games will be held in Turin, Italy from February 10 to 26. ...

Ando made a strong return in the 2006-2007 season winning Skate America and picking up the silver medal at Trophée Eric Bompard. It was therefore surprising that she placed 5th at the Grand Prix Final in Moscow; however, it was later revealed that Ando, along with the rest of the Japanese team, competed there while suffering from the stomach flu. At the 2006 Japanese Nationals, she placed second behind Mao Asada, earning one of three spots to represent Japan at the 2007 World Figure Skating Championships. Placing second in both the short program and the free skate, Ando scored a total of 195.09 points to win the World Championship by less than one point over her countrywoman, Mao Asada.
