Rochette's quest continues
Just two days after the sudden death of her mother, the 24-year-old Rochette delivered an emotional and technically sound skate on Tuesday, earning a personal-best score of 71.36 points in the short program at the Vancouver Olympics. She's in third place heading into Thursday's free skate (5 p.m. PT, 8 p.m. ET).
