Inna Goncharenko, Honored Coach of Russia, in an interview assessed the results of the first day of the women's competition in Turin.
- Inna Germanovna, many events fit in 30 minutes, what struck you the most?
- Two girls made a big impression. This is Alena Kostornaya, who performed under the first number. Opening competitions is always difficult, and she has this is the first experience of the Grand Prix finals at the adult level. But she rolled impeccably and very easily. And earned just awesome points.
The second is Alina Zagitova, who came out last. Again, a very difficult number, when everyone had already performed. But she showed a rental worthy of an Olympic champion. Everything was there - professionalism, fighting qualities, the ability to assemble. Good masterful adult skating.
- How do you judge today? All about the case?
- Very adequate, yes. The only thing I would have Alina put more components. That she had somewhere 81 points. At least I would like it so much (laughs). According to my inner feeling, her rental struck me. But in general, the judges noticed everything and reflected, if there were errors, no discomfort.

The performance of Zagitova, who closed the short program, became a real cherry for the delicious cake of the women's tournament. However, a similar effect was noticeable during the training, when the entire six finalists dissected on the same ice. Alina too stood out from the rest, with calmness and dignity checking the necessary elements. She attracted her eyes and made her follow her every move.
However, all this was visible at the stages of the series, but it did not save from errors in the short program. In Turin, cool training finally became the basis for the same competitive hire. Alina herself explained this by the fact that she controlled the movements at the box office and felt the level of adrenaline necessary for the starts.
