October 23, 20187 yr Sigh, Polina Tsurskaya seems like the type of skater who needs time to blossom, but could be World/Olympic champion caliber when she does, and that's just not possible in Russia right now. If she skated for another country she could have less pressure to skate with injuries (which I'm afraid of for all skaters in Russia tbh because one missed/bad competition could sideline your entire season).

October 29, 20187 yr I think of all people to lose to, it's good that Evgenia lost to Liza. Liza shows that it's possible for a skater to have a bad couple of seasons and then come back with a vengeance, even in Russia. And that it's possible for older Russian skaters (well, however much "older" 21 is) to still be successful. Congratulations to both!

November 4, 20187 yr Anna Pogorilaya and her coach Tsareva have parted ways. She's expected to train with Viktoria Butsaeva (Volchkova).
