Anna Shcherbakova

Anyone know what's up with the bandage on the back of Anna's neck? I was watching the live feed of the ROC practice session last night. Very frustrated the camera stayed on Kamila the entire time, so didn't get to watch Anna's program. I noticed it when she was at the boards and one of the coaches checked it (can't remember which.)

I didn't see anything about a bandage on her neck. I saw rumor that she injured an ankle in a fall a few days ago, which might have some credibility given that she's been doing minimal quads vs. what she was doing late last week in practice and in run throughs she's been marking her 2 opening quad passes with single jumps and that in run through last night she was in tears after a couple jumping passes - so is it just stress due to the current situation with her coaching team and fellow Russian skater or is she injured?

We can just hope Anna will be OK on Tuesday... :pray:
 
I'm willing myself to keep negative thoughts to myself, but it isn't easy. I don't think any person should ever have to go through what Anna is and has for the past few not just days but months (not just her but as this is Anna's FF I will keep the focus on her).

To stay positive, I am forcing myself to remember Anna's very supportive, down to earth, non-sports/non-figure skating family. I hope she is talking to them a lot and that they are able to give her the outside perspective, along with unconditional love and support of course.

Let's remember the cute girl who grew up to become this fighter!
 
She's a living embodiment of beauty :love:

^ Anna had to change skates during the olympics, which caused her problems:

Good to know it wasn't an injury, but still a problem. Maybe I remember it wrong but I think I read it takes about a week or two to break into the new skates.

so 3 quads islmost impossible now, she'll be lucky to land 1, but the practice today was better for the flip but the lutz is nowhere to be found.
