Hanyu probably can’t do quads or even triples properly in GPF, coz I heard that he sprained his right ankle before CoR. Doctor advised him to stop practicing jumps and even skip CoR, but his federation asked him to skate nonetheless.
And that was why he failed on both quad attempts in SP and FS. Even worse, the sprain got more serious after the competition, and now he can hardly do any jumps. His Japanese fans seem to worry about his Japanese Nationals.
I don’t read Japanese and use google translator, so I may have misread something. If someone here understands Japanese, then plz help find this out.
The truth is not so bad as you might worry.
I read the original article from the doctor's blog (deleted a few hours after it came public) and the truth is
Hanyu did sprain his right ankle one week before CoR, but the doctor did not advise him stop practicing jumps and skip CoR.
It is sure the doctor accompanied Yuzuru in Russia and treated him there, but it was not because of the sprained ankle.
They had promised to go to Russia together since the begging of this season.
Actually TV news here in Tokyo just told Ms. Abe and Hanyu left for Canada today.
