After watching them struggle, the Frenchman purposely played it safer in his long program, performing a triple, rather than quad, Salchow and doing a triple-triple combo instead of his second quad toe. He did keep the first quad in his program, and he nailed it. Coming off the ice, Joubert thought he had done enough to defend his title. While he finished with just the silver medal, he did gain enough rankings points to retain the top spot from Takahashi.
