I'm so sorry that her boot broke. I wish her the best for tomorrow!

Good luck to Anna tomorrow. A very good short program would set her up well for the free. A very good short program would set her up well for the free skate.

Anna Shcherbakova: “Today I was not nervous at all. I felt like I owned every moment.”

Russian figure skater Anna Shcherbakova assessed the results of her short programme at the Beijing Olympics.

Shcherbakova showed the second result, scoring 80.20 points for the skate.

“I wasn’t nervous at all today. I felt that I owned every moment.

I do have new skates, but that doesn't bother me at all.

Yes, I cried in training. I'm just very emotional, it's a pretty typical state for me.

The main thing is to get it together at the right time,”said Shcherbakova.

Google translation (it's the same quote that JazzUp posted above):

Anna Shcherbakova:
- I was practically not nervous, I controlled every rotation, every jump. I am completely satisfied with the rental and the ratings. Now it is very important to tune in to a free program, not to miss your chance. As for the new skates… Yes, three days ago I broke a blade on one of them. Today I skated in other skates. It happens, no big deal. But, of course, I didn’t want this to happen at the Olympics.

Anna and her nerves of steel again. Under such circumstances a clean program. It was probably a smart decision not to try her chances with a +3Lo combo (damned boots). Congrats to our girl!

Fierce Anna.



And some wow photographs.

Congrats to Anna for her magnificent short. Once again she showed that she has nerves of steel and what a great competitor she is.

Anna is an assassin of drama.
Press wanted a soundbite, either about Kamila about the broken skates or about the crying and she was like I am a very emotional person but satisfied today thanks for coming bye

Amazing short program from Anna it was so beautiful. Let's hope she has a performance of this quality in the free skate.

I hope she has a great practice tomorrow.

Did you see Anna yet? Can you please share your thoughts here after you're done?

I've seen all of the three girls and Kaori, but very briefly, while doing my work.
