Siblings Tammy & Victor didn't draw the best of luck on the ninth leg of "The Amazing Race 14." Their flight to Guilin, China was delayed and Tammy's birds on the fish retrieval Roadblock were uncooperative through no fault of anyone. Yet amazingly, the team still finished in second place just seconds away from the top spot yet again.
The great advantage that Tammy & Victor had (aside from strong racing skills and intelligence) was a verbal understanding of Mandarin Chinese. They could communicate with locals in their own words while others couldn't... Unfortunately, the other teams picked up on that fact and simply hung close to the siblings for virtually the entire leg.
With leg ten also based in China, it seems even more unlikely than usual for Tammy & Victor to face elimination. Their overall racing performance remains the strongest of the surviving TAR14 teams. The only people who could get Tammy & Victor eliminated from "The Amazing Race 14" before its finale are Tammy & Victor. With no signs of dissension in weeks, such an implosion seems a faint possibility at best.
