Anna Shcherbakova

Short resume of the very long and rich in content 1TV interview with Anna:

«Фанатела от Боян Цзиня, плакала, когда его засудили». Чемпионка России Щербакова — о кумирах и своей болезни - 22 декабря 2020 - Sport24

Готовится выиграть третий ЧР подряд.

From what I've gathered, both her interview and Sof'ya Samodelkina's by 1TV of late have been well received by professional observers and fans alike.

You scared me. First half of the second I read "with her draw" as a "withdraw"

Oh no! That must have been a moment of sheer terror.


A nice snap of happy rivals...

Anna is looking serene and almost transcendent in these recent photos

Good results... I hope it will stay like this after free...

But poor Anya still doesn't look very healthy, she also said during interview she wants to rest and complete healing at the beginning of the new year... hopefully she will be OK tomorrow...

Anna of Green Gables SP from today:

Anna said that with the Europeans cancelled her plans aim at Worlds.

She doesn't seem to think her recent illness should be an obstacle. As she said before: "I may look fragile, but I'm a warrior"

Anna is the warrior princess! So much tougher than she looks.

How did she do and what place is she in? Her previous two senior Nationals annual was not in the lead going into the free skate was she?

Anna’s Lz-Lo looked better than ever. She gets back into loop so quick now, also her loop was very high. Perhaps they’re planning to work on 4Lo?

See Anna's skate above. She is in the lead.

If there is a plan for the third quad, maybe Loop would be the choice, though I hope not now.

Sure. Just the loop combo looked very impressive.

That's nice but Anya is struggling physically according to what people are posting. The free skate will be a real test for her. I'm sure TT will monitor her health tomorrow and hopefully she is fit to go. A 3 peat would be incredible considering the circumstances and that she has to compete against KV now too.

Well, despite what some people possibly think I believe Eteri cares for the health of her skaters, if for nothing else than for what it would cause for her if she would do otherwise. There were numerous cases in the past when she held a skater back after injury or other health problem. While the girls aren't passive in it, remember how Kamila herself explained that she begged Eteri to allow her to skate at JGPF last season when Eteri wanted to leave her home because of her previous injury.
