Alina Zagitova

[madison]

Does anyone know why Alina did not arrive earlier? They have a practice on the rink and she missed it. They announced that it was her time to skate but she wasn't there. You can see that in the video where Zhenya does her choreo moves from the start of her DQ program

But she's there now....she already had a practice/practices in Korea, ready for tomorrow

I even read that many athletes rather live and train in Seoul and elsewhere due to limited capacity for training in Pyeongchang.

Good luck Zagi.

Powerful and moving tribute to Alina from her father and Izhstal Izhevsk ice hockey club: https://youtu.be/-mRtAwn_joc. Great to see such tremendous support and pride from the people of her home town.

Alina is asking her fans: "Please support me. I will try to do everything that, everything [that is] possible, that depends on me".
She is so sweet

Let's see if she keeps up her momentum tonight.

If she goes clean... That's a WR, and Med has a lot to worry about.

[lastremnant]

Excellent, Alina! Great Olympic debut! Well done!

 

[dna5019]

Great job, Alina! Just wow!

Congrats with solid victory, Alina! Just as expected. It will be a serious fight for gold in the individual competition.

can't yet find a full video, but seems like she missed accent in the end

Congrats Alina, you were wonderful! The sky is the limit!

Wow, the amount of utter hate she gets in competition threads is insane. Kinda reminds me of Medvedeva's first/second senior seasons. Funny how it's the same people posting EXACTLY the same posts at EXACTLY the same time, like bots lol. Disgusting.

I think in general people should be respectful of all athletes. A bit of fun is fine, but the hate some people sling...

Same here. I don't love her, but my boyfriend and my friends loved her to death. There must be something I'm missing (despite the fact the she's extremely talented and as good technically as one can get)
