Jeffrey Buttle retired from FS competitions !

Surprise , Jeffrey Buttle is not going to compete anymore. Even though he is not my favorite skater, he was always in my top skater’s list. Although I was guessing he may not compete until next Olympics... After winning at last worlds with two perfect performances, and achieved one of his goal (? ), it may be good time to retire for him. It was an amazing comeback from disappointed early last season. He also won Olympics bronze medal in 2006, and also worlds silver medal at 2005. Besides three time Canadian national champions. Even though he was unable to nail quad jump , it’s already great success.  Seems like Jeffrey doesn’t have desire to compete anymore. Maybe he already got what he wanted in FS competitions. And sounded like he is satisfied with his career and happy for his decision, so it’s good. Especially from next season, judging system was changed and will be benefit for clean quad, and minor points for unsuccessful quad jumps, he might get pressure to add clean quad...
