The Palmer sisters head to Bordeaux in strong form after earning top finishes during the World Cup qualifying season. They began their quest to the Finals with a win in Stuttgart, Germany in November before collecting a third-place finish two weeks later at the CVI-W Paris to close out the month. Their last prep for the inaugural Final came in Austria at CVI-W Salzburg where they once again placed third among a strong field.
