An excerpt characterizing the 2017 World Team Figure Skating Championships

“Merci,” said Pierre. The captain looked intently at Pierre the same way he looked when he learned what the shelter was called in German, and his face suddenly lit up.
- Ah! dans ce cas je bois a notre amitie! [Ah, in that case, I drink to your friendship!] - he shouted cheerfully, pouring two glasses of wine. Pierre took the glass he had poured and drank it. Rambal drank his, shook Pierre's hand again and leaned his elbows on the table in a thoughtfully melancholy pose.
“Oui, mon cher ami, voila les caprices de la fortune,” he began. – Qui m"aurait dit que je serai soldat et capitaine de dragons au service de Bonaparte, comme nous l"appellions jadis. Et cependant me voila a Moscou avec lui. “Il faut vous dire, mon cher,” he continued in the sad, measured voice of a man who is about to tell a long story, “que notre nom est l"un des plus anciens de la France. [Yes, my friend, here is the wheel of fortune. Who said I wish I would be a soldier and captain of dragoons in the service of Bonaparte, as we used to call him. However, here I am in Moscow with him. I must tell you, my dear... that our name is one of the most ancient in France.]
And with the easy and naive frankness of a Frenchman, the captain told Pierre the history of his ancestors, his childhood, adolescence and manhood, all his family, property, and family relationships. “Ma pauvre mere [“My poor mother.”] played, of course, an important role in this story.
– Mais tout ca ce n"est que la mise en scene de la vie, le fond c"est l"amour? L"amour! “N"est ce pas, monsieur; Pierre?” he said, perking up. “Encore un verre.” [But all this is only an introduction to life, its essence is love. Love! Isn’t it right, Monsieur Pierre? Another glass. ]
Pierre drank again and poured himself a third.
- Oh! Les femmes, les femmes! [ABOUT! women, women!] - and the captain, looking at Pierre with oily eyes, began to talk about love and his love affairs. There were a lot of them, which was easy to believe, looking at the smug, handsome face of the officer and at the enthusiastic animation with which he spoke about women. Despite the fact that all of Rambal's love stories had that dirty character in which the French see the exceptional charm and poetry of love, the captain told his stories with such sincere conviction that he alone experienced and knew all the delights of love, and described women so temptingly that Pierre listened to him with curiosity.

The international figure skating tournament presented the audience with a new portion of performances with interesting results. This topic contains the schedule of all competitions, the results of men, as well as interesting comments.

As one would expect, Evgenia Medvedeva was included in the women's lineup. Together with her, Elena Radionova entered the women's team. Maxim Kovtun and Mikhail Kolyada will compete in men's singles. The couples will also have an interesting line-up. Vladimir Morozov and Evgenia Tarasova will represent the Russian Federation as a sports couple. At the World Championships, the couple won bronze, which came at too great a cost, and now the skaters will try to build on their success at the last tournament of the season. Ekaterina Bobrova and Dmitry Solovyov will take part in the competition as a dancing couple.

Maxim Kovtun, who was late for the plane to Tokyo, did not skate his short program in the best way, ending up outside the top ten. However, his younger colleague Mikhail Kolyada, after the first results, received fourth place and left himself with good chances for a place in the top three at the end of the second day of competition.

As last time, the winner of the free program was the representative of Japan, Yuzuru Hanyu. In total, he scored 200 points for his rental. His compatriot Shoma Uno scored two points less. The top three were closed by figure skater from Canada Patrick Chan, who collected a collection of 190 points. Kolyada showed the best result among Russian figure skaters. In the free program he took 5th place with a score of 184 points. In front of him was Nathan Chan from the USA, to whom the young Russian lost by only one point. Another representative of the Russian Federation, Maxim Kovtun, closed the top ten, losing two points to Kevin Reynolds from Canada.

Figure skating team world championship 2017: comments from skaters

Mikhail Kolyada, who has already finished competing at the World Championships, summed up his personal results of the season. Overall, the young skater is happy with the season, but also noted that he still has a lot to work on. Kolyada said that during the season he had both ups and downs, but at the end he put a good point. According to the athlete, he needs to improve some technical aspects in order to perform more complex tricks in the future. According to Mikhail, in his future plans he has a lot of work to do on himself. For now, he sets himself the goal of qualifying for the Olympic Games and performing as best as possible at this tournament. Kolyada emphasized that together with the team he will change the programs for which he plans to qualify for the Olympic Games, so during the break he will have a lot of work.

Kolyada’s partner Maxim Kovtun also appreciated the results of his performances. The skater admitted that his performance at the international tournament was not the best. According to the athlete, such performances are a good experience for him, since almost the entire season is behind him, but he still needs to show a high level. According to Maxim, he tried to perform as efficiently as possible and clung to every movement. The skater’s immediate plans are to go home to his parents, but not for long. In about a week, Kovtun plans to work with the director on new programs. The skater decided not to announce the name of the new director for now. Like Kolyada, Kovtun is making big plans for the new season, but has not yet shared them, keeping the information secret.

The Russian figure skating team won silver at the world team championship in Japan, despite two more world records by Evgenia Medvedeva.

5:32 24.04.2017

The Russian figure skating team won silver at the world team championship in Tokyo, the capital of Japan, despite two new world records and the largest number of points earned by two-time world champion in women's single skating Evgenia Medvedeva.

The Russians scored 105 points in total, the Japanese team took first place (109), and the Americans took third (97). Victory in each of the two programs of each type was estimated at 12 points and then in descending order. The total points for both programs were not officially calculated. Medvedeva won the maximum possible 24 points for her team.

Era of Medvedeva

The world champion first set a new world record in the short program, scoring 80.85 points (the previous one - 79.21 - belonged to her and was set at the Grand Prix Final in Marseille). The Russian performed all the elements to perfection, and for the “triple flip - triple toe loop” cascade she received from the judges the absolute maximum “+3” according to the GOE (Grade of execution) system. For components, the skater did not receive a single recorded score below 9 points on a 10-point system. “Medvedeva’s era is now absolute,” the figure skater’s coach and choreographer Ilya Averbukh responded to what was happening.

Elena Radionova, who had been part of the current season for a long time, did not perform the short starting cascade “Lutz - toe loop”, which failed her at the Russian Championship in Chelyabinsk, but did a separate lutz, and in the second half of the program - a high-quality “rittberger - toe loop”, a more expensive cascade than "lutz - sheepskin coat". The result is 72.21 points, second position and 11 points for the team. Japanese Mai Mihara took third place, 11 hundredths of a point behind Radionova.

The women's free skate was the culmination of the tournament. By that time, the Russians were in third place with 85 points, three points behind the Japanese and one behind the Americans. Averbukh's words were again confirmed on the ice. Medvedeva received 160.46 points from the judges (154.40 is the previous record, which was set by the same figure skater at the World Championships in Helsinki). If we add up the sum of the points, the Russian woman would have recorded another historical achievement, but at the World Team Championship only each program is officially counted.

All 12 elements of the winner’s program were rated exclusively “+2” and “+3”; not a single judge dared to give Medvedeva even “+1”. “In the pre-Olympic year, she widens the gap not only technically, but also psychologically. These are very important things,” Honored Trainer of Russia Tatyana Tarasova shared her impressions of Medvedeva’s skating.

Mai Mihara was 14.5 points behind in second, and Wakaba Higuchi was third. Both skaters thereby brought gold to the Japanese team. Radionova coped with the starting “Lutz-toe loop” cascade, but made mistakes during the execution of the triple Lutz and double Axel. The result is fifth place.

A little earlier, the Russian sports couple, bronze medalists of the last world championship Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov, became second in the free program, scoring 142.38 points. The first place was taken by the French Vanessa James and Morgan Cipres, the third - by the Chinese Peng Cheng/Jin Yang.

A day earlier, the Russians were fourth in the short program, having failed on a parallel triple toe loop and a triple loop throw (66.37 points, 9 points). “It just didn’t work out. It’s clear that it’s the end of the season. But these are more technical errors than just fatigue,” Tarasova explained. James/Cipres won the short program, Peng Cheng/Jin Yang took second place, and Canadians Kirsten Moore-Towers/Michael Marinaro took third place.

“Of course, we had the peak of our form at the World Championships,” shared Tarasova’s partner Morozov. “After Zhenya’s injury (received in Helsinki), upon arrival in Moscow, we did not immediately begin preparation; we did not skate with a full set of elements in the free program, but the free program in Tokyo skated well and scored high points."

The national record didn't really help

Help for the “weaker sex” from singles men looked ridiculous even against the backdrop of the national record in the short by Mikhail Kolyada. No Russian figure skater in history had ever scored 95.37 points in the short program before. The St. Petersburg resident achieved such a mark due to a cascade of essentially yesterday’s quadruple and triple toe loops, triple Axel and triple Lutz in the second half of the program. But in the company of world stars, the current champion of Russia became fourth.

Having, however, beaten the world champion and Olympic champion Yuzuru Hanyu, who skated extremely dirty in the tournament debut (7th place). Not even two revolutions came out of the planned quadruple loop... Maxim Kovtun became 11th (64.62 points, 2 points), making a butterfly on a quadruple axel and locking a quadruple toe loop. And the Russian team fell back to second place in the team. The Japanese Soma Uno won the short race and the maximum 12 points, the American Nathan Chen was second, and the Chinese Jin Boyang was third.

A whole scattering of star skaters will gather in the capital of Japan, Tokyo, because the World Cup starts there Team Figure Skating Championships 2017.
