Evgenia Medvedeva

It's amazing how much Zhenya has become the Japanese media's favorite. On the very serious youtube channel ANN News, they made a short report on the return of Russian athletes and guess who is being interviewed? The one who won the gold medal? Well, no, Zhenya instead : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBW9Boo6Jro

Besides, I think someone put the link where recently she was invited on a Japanese TV set to talk about her final. And in the Youtube comments, a Japanese person was surprised to see a non-Japanese woman come to talk about it, and that it was new or very rare.
 
Looks like Zhenya will win the public vote.

Zhenya at the moment 26% first place.
Alina 9% sixth place.

Toyota Challenge Cup from Match TV. The winner will recieve a Toyota Fortuner.

Also she will recieve a BMW X5 +2,5 Million ruble for each silver medal from the russian sport ministerium. Plus price money from the moscow regional goverment. I think ca. 8 million rubles (140 thousand dollar) will her total price money. Sponsors in this calculation are not included...
