Youth Olympics figure boy Kagiyama is 3rd in SP1 January 11 at 10:00

16-year-old Yuma Kagiyama was third in the men's short program for figure skating at the Lausanne Youth Olympics.

The Youth Olympics, held in Lausanne, Switzerland, began on the 10th, of which figure skating was a short program for men's singles.

Kagiyama, who competed from Japan, finished third in the All-Japan Championship last month, and is expected to win medals in this tournament.

Kagiyama calmly decided the triple axel following the three-turn loop at the beginning of the performance, but fell down on the wall in subsequent successive jumps.

Kagiyama, who was hit by this mistake, was unable to improve his score and was 72.76, a 6.96-million improvement over the top Russian player.

Kagiyama said, "I tried to be careful because the link was smaller than usual, but I was too fast and hit the wall. I was confident that I was free because the triple axel jumped in the short program." I was talking.

The second half of the men's single will be free on the 12th.
