Best check the previous works of this writer Yelena Zotova and her literary critique, then her behaviour on social media when it comes to dealing with critics.

seems like a story written to order and to suit its promotional purpose. Don't expect any critical analysis of any kind.

There might be nice photographs from the family archive etc etc.

So, nevertheless, buy yourself a copy and try to have Aleksandra autograph it, and you'll have gotten yourself a nice collectors item.

Just remember the girl in the red sweater from Russian Nationals that had her souvenir autographed by Aleksandra and marked by a spilled tear, this will most likely remain the rarest and most precious item ever procured from Aleksandra, who is as steely as they come.
 
Just for the record, Yuzuru's first autobiography was published in 2012 when he was 17 and had no major senior titles, so it's not that strange (though his book was largely a charity project). :)
And i would have bought it if i could:biggrin:.

In Sasha's (Plushenko's) case, it's clearly for money. Aside of "overstating" some achievements, i wonder what they will say in that book.

Rudkovskaya will probably purchase the remaining print run and have it sold in concession booths at Rostelekom GP or the 5th cup stage in Moscow.

Perhaps even arranging for an autograph session with Trusova. Think about this under current coronavirus threat ...
 

Table of contents of the book on Trusova. Nothing from the present "начинающему тренеру" or previous trainers.

Also, best exploit it now, while she still can ride on the sentiments of her previous coaching team and the results they have achieved together.

No need to kill intrigue! Appeal to the judges of the Russian Cup stage in Sochi

The battle of Shcherbakova vs Tuktamysheva should become a decoration of the tournament, and not a reason for scandals.



Sport Ekspress' Kuznetsov already raising the right sentiments.

Wonder how the sport betting agency's guess the chances of either?

There was and is a huge difference in both first and second score already and a great lot of 'ifs' and 'whens', which will make this 'battle' all the more interesting.
 
sometimes I wish there was a [sarcasm] bbcode too...
Well I figured that you were being sarcastic, but I thought I might lighten the mood a bit, looks like there needs to be a [joking] bbcode too.

Plus, I imagine whoever wrote this biography probably isn't allowed to say too much about the secrets of Team Tutberidze... somehow I don't think they'd go for that.
 
Nice and long interview with Irina Slutskaya


"The fight for the Olympic podium in Beijing 2022 will unfold between our skaters." Irina Slutskaya's opinion

After the birth of youngest daughter Kira, the two-time Olympic medalist in figure skating and two-time World Champion only rarely gives interviews. Nevertheless, a frank conversation took place with the Team Russia portal, from which you will learn: why Yelizaveta Tuktamysheva is worthy to perform at the Games of 2022, how classical music affects the programs of young skaters, and how you can find happiness and harmony after the end of a sports career.
 
Regarding Kostornaya's new FS...I don't really dig the opening sequence, as others have said it's really too frantic and not very impactful and I hope they reconsider. When hearing this music, I cannot help but remember the opening of Medvedeva's first senior FS back in 2016, which was quite superior, IMO. I kinda like the rest that they showed though, let's see if the final work will be beautiful and cohesive.

"The Dance for me Wallis" sequence in Aliona's Free Skate is in the middle of the program, it's not her opening :) her FS starts with the soundtrack "Wayward Sisters" from Nocturnal Animals and it ends with "The Cheek of Night" from R&J as her Step Sequence.
