Evgenia Medvedeva

It worked for Donald Trump. "They go low, you go high" isn't always the best option when you're dealing with an opponent who fights dirty.

I mean to be fair.... a significant portion of Trump's now-constituents really really do not like him and his dirty tactics. And while that doesn't seem to matter in American politics, as much as people deny it being a fan-favorite can open some doors in figure skating that just aren't available to personally unlikable skaters. I think, especially if the plan is to move to canada to work with orser, Evgenia really needs to take the high road and show up the 40-year-old woman who thought making what is essentially a tabloid spectacle was an effective move to make against an 18 year old.
 
Just wan’t to know who will be her new coach. Zhenya please at least say something about that[emoji120]
 
No news yet? I thought that after coming home from school there’d be at least something. Sigh. Well... Not too bad... I should be studying anyway. But I need this damn statement first!! Anyone got an idea when she‘s going to speak about it?
 
Now that i am thinking again what Eteri said yesterday to the media, i really can not understand the reasons behind this behavior..I had respect for her but now not anymore. I wish the best for Alina of course as i do admire her, but for Eteri i really dont know what to believe anymore. My thoughts are entirely to Zhenya! I am sure she is sad about all this but I am super confident that everything will be perfect for her. She deserve all the goods in the word!
 
Oh dear, I actual can't focus on my work now, updating twitter feed every second!:drama:
Sending positive vibes to Zhenya..........Praying to all figure skating gods, this crazy drama need to stop!

P.S. I am still like this after yesterday: https://goo.gl/images/37VFnE

What Eteri wants is this: http://olympics.nbcsports.com/2018/05/07/yevgenia-medvedeva-alina-zagitova-eteri-tutberidze/
To damage her former student's reputation as much as possible.

As crazy as it sounds lots of people actually believed Eteri's words and even defend her :slink:, I checked Instagram and sports.ru (I know, it's trashy website, but still, many people are against Zhenya....).
So that's what she is aiming for, to change public opinion against Zhenya....

Sorry for the offtop :giveup:

Go-go Tsarina or shall I say #RunZhenyaRun
 
Two-time silver medalist of the Olympic Games, two-time world and European champion Evgeny Medvedev officially announced his decision to work with the new coach and commented on the situation:

- First of all, I want to thank Eteri Georgievna Tutberidze and the entire coaching staff for a long, fruitful, sometimes very difficult work. For the great patience that they showed in relation to me and incredible coaching, professional endurance. These people gave me a life in figure skating and led to such high results that I can rightly be proud of.

Turning to the subject of recent events, I want to clarify the situation. I will continue to speak for the Russian Federation, staying in the school "Sambo-70", while training with the Canadian specialist Brian Orser. I do this to use new opportunities and other methods of the training process and continue to represent Russia at the highest level.

As you know, after the Olympics on March 8 I flew to Germany for medical examination. And I was strongly advised to refrain from the load, and I was forced to miss two months of full-time training.

I want to wish the further development and prosperity to Eteri Georgievna's group and once again say thank you for such a valuable 11 years of my life. I remember how I came in just a little. Yes, it was sometimes hard, but I was trained, educated, supported, when necessary - driven. I grew up in front of Eteri Georgievna. She made an invaluable contribution to the development of me not only as an athlete, but also as a person. From her I got many life lessons. I will remember them all my life. On the rink "Crystal" my childhood passed, I will remember with gratitude the time of hard but fruitful work.


Also, I wish all the children from the Eteri Georgievna group, the greatest health, patience, diligence and sports longevity, because we all now know the tremendous, seven-league steps our forward favorite sports, figure skating are moving forward.


I hope that the time will pass and everyone will understand that this was the only possible option for both of us, to continue to work honestly, "said the sportswoman.
 
Thanking Eteri and her team. Showing class and grace under fire despite Eteri's spiteful attack. This just makes Eteri look even worse by comparison.
 
So glad she kept it classy and respectful. In comparison to Eteri she seems to be the adult
