Doesn't sound like she made it.....

Return to Competition

Cohen announced on May 6, 2009 that she planned to make a comeback for the 2010 Olympics.[5] She received invitations to compete in the 2009 Trophée Eric Bompard and in the 2009 Skate America in the 2009-2010 Grand Prix Series. Cohen was forced to withdraw from both of her planned Grand Prix events due to an injury to her calf.

On January 21, 2010 she finally took to the competitive ice for the first time in four years at the 2010 AT&T U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Spokane, Washington. She debuted her short program to España Cañí, and skated a strong performance landing a triple lutz-double toe, a triple flip, a double axel, along with her signature spiral sequence and spins earning 69.63 points putting her in second place, just 0.43 from first place finisher Mirai Nagasu. However, her free skate, set to Moonlight Sonata, was filled with errors; she fell on a triple flip and had two-footed landings on a number of other jumps. Cohen finished fourth in the championships, behind Rachael Flatt, Mirai Nagasu and Ashley Wagner, and was not selected for the Olympic team. She is the second alternate incase of injury or other circumstances that would prevent Flatt and Nagasu from competing

On a positive note..... I leave you with this :D
