The International Skating Union stated there is no evidence of intent, but the accusation has sparked controversy and comparisons to the infamous Tonya Harding-Nancy Kerrigan incident. Footage shows Lim grabbing her leg in pain after the incident.

US Figure Skating stated that the athletes exchanged good luck wishes the following morning.
