Elena Radionova

Lena posted a photo of herself at the airport yesterday, so I was wondering where she was going, and now I know. I totally did not expect her to meet Putin though!! :eek:

Vladimir Vladimirovich is a big fan of sport and he always do a selfie if he was asked by sportsmens.

Yes, but only Lena got a pat on the arm after the selfie... :yes:

Here's another video:

I just :rofl: at Lena's amazing ability to be front and center in videos and photos. She's standing right in the center even though the other guy is the one who gives Putin the gift (?) and makes a little speech...

And then of course she's in the middle next to Putin! :laugh:

And here's the selfie:

The suspense is killing me

I really thought Lena had no shot of making the World team, so I'm not sure what exactly they're waiting for...to see if someone gets injured? :confused:

New interview with Lena!!

She doesn't say much of anything that is new, but what does this mean? Can someone please translate? :bow: Thanks!

— Вы не по годам рассудительны. Наверное, у такой умницы и красавицы море ухажеров?
— Ухаживать стараются многие, но кавалера еще не выбрала, так что сердце пока свободно.

I think it's asking if she has a boyfriend..?
 
they ask if such a smart and beautiful lady has many guys courting her.
She says there are many who try, but she didnt pick one yet, so her heart is still free.

Thank you for translating, moriel! :thank:

LOL at Lena's answer. :laugh: I wonder who all these suitors are... ;)
 
Here is another video from the event with Putin:

Around 0:47, the camera zooms in on Lena... :laugh: Totally reminded me of the random zoom-in on Lena's eyes from the Junior worlds medal ceremony at 10:15 here: https://youtu.be/xYglmg3F0JI?t=10m13s

And here's a translation of the new interview with Lena: :agree:

From this, it sounds like Lena knows she's not going to Worlds and she's ok with it...
 
What a lovely interview! It's relieving to hear that Lena hasn't lost motivation and focus for PyeongChang next season.

So is Lena's season over now or is she going to compete at some smaller lower-key competitions?
 
Yeah that was not looking too good

Sadly I didn't. What did it look like? [emoji37]

Also, official ISU entry list for Worlds is up and sadly no Lena. But maybe just as well if she's having a possible knee problem… [emoji17][emoji22]

Her knee cap was looking black and blue like she fell on it or something. Glad I did not make a plan to go to Worlds this year. Would be real disappointed not seeing Lena
 
Anyone see Lena's IG Story? What happened to her knee? I hope she's fine..

I was away for a while. What exactly happend? I can't find anything on her Instagram (IG) involving info. on her knee. Could you explain.

If possiple, provide a prooflink as well. Thank you in advance. :)

If she's injured, then I'm glad she won't risk competing so close to the start of the Olympic year.

However, it's still completely absurd looking at the Worlds entry list and not seeing her name among those eligible outright.

If you're going to call a competition a World Championships, it should have a field including the best in the world, not most of the best plus a random selection of others.
