Not sure if Google translate is 100% accurate, but the general gist I'm getting is that the Ministry and the Fed will provide/support all training conditions for Yulia in Sochi, and that Yulia's going through her difficult/transition phase 3 years from the next Olympics, meaning she has 2 years to prepare, which will be enough time before 2018
 
According to Russian tabloids she is also rumored to be dating a horse riding instructor, Kovtun and Morris....and pretty much any 'male' she is pictured with. :rofl: *cue soap opera*

Now Kovtun has outed his actual girlfriend though, so that rumor should be off the table... for now :rofl:
 
He is knew and has worked with novice mainly, and some juniors. I have no idea about him as a coach either but none of the great coaches was born successful either. Let's see what he can do first.

This is incorrect. He's been a coach for well over a decade. He coached Sergei Voronov for years...when he was 2x champ of Russia, 7th at Worlds, etc.

Okay. Even better but a part from Voronov which other seniors has he coached?

He trained Nikol Gosviani. I remember him when he was with Nikol at Euros. By the way what happened with Nikol? She was injured last time I heeard of her, meaning last season.
We just have to wait and see, if Yulia feels comfortable with him I think it will be enough for her to reset. That will help her with selfconfidence and consistency. Then he might help her with her jumps but that won't happen over night.

Gosviani is going to compete for Italy now. She's living and training here.
