At least the good news is that he'll have more time in between that and senior Worlds

I hope that he tones down the SP a bit just for this competition so he'll have a higher chance of getting the SP mins. Don't want a repeat of Cup of Austria....

Been a fan of his since he first started on the JGP in the 2019-2020 season. Glad to see him go to Worlds.

I hope he pulls off one of his "Instagram combos" to shake up pre-Worlds. It's the perfect time. International event with absolutely no pressure. He's already achieved what he came for.

Poor Ilia is so out of breath in that interview. Smart kid, do as well as he can this year with the programs he has, and worry about the crazy combos in a program in the future.

Ilia Malinin, the “quadg0d,” seems heaven-sent for U.S. figure skating
At 17 years old, Ilia Malinin - coached by his Olympian parents - will be the youngest to represent the U.S. in men’s singles at worlds in 56 years.

From the Phil Hersh article:
"For the record: Malinin took his mother’s last name – in its traditional masculine form in Russian – because both parents were concerned Skorniyakov would be hard for people to pronounce, especially by Ilia’s school classmates."

Great interview. I find it fascinating that his parents coach different jumps for him. I guess it makes sense if each were better at the different jumps. And I can't wait to see his young sister Liza!I love this interview with Ilia:

Good luck Ilia at Worlds - hope he has a fantastic debut!
