Preparations for the 2021/22 season in figure skating are in full swing.

Alexei Mishin's group went to the training camp in French Courchevel.

The views of the Alps can leave few people indifferent, and Elizaveta Tuktamysheva even admitted that this is where her "place of power" is.

It can be assumed that the mountains really have a fruitful effect on the 2015 world champion.

After the end of her vacation, very little time passed, and the athlete managed to restore the crown element - the triple axel.

At the same time, she jokingly admitted that she had already managed to get tired of constant training.

“Not as vigorous as on the first day.

Help!"

- wrote Tuktamysheva on Instagram.

The popularity of the athlete continues to grow.

The figure skater again entered the 50 most famous people of St. Petersburg according to the publication "Sobaka.ru".

The athlete attended the award ceremony, which took place in the Elagin Palace.

“Glad to be one of the invited guests!

It was great to see old acquaintances and meet new interesting people! "

And Evgenia Medvedeva, Adelina Sotnikova, Alexey Yagudin and Ilya Averbukh attended the "Calling" award, awarded for outstanding achievements to medical workers, as guests.

The award ceremony is held annually on the eve of the Day of the Medical Worker with the support of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation and Channel One.

June is the traditional time for school and university exams.

Sophia Tyutyunina, silver medalist of the Youth Olympic Games in ice dancing, boasted of her USE score in Russian, for which she scored 100 points.

And another graduate Elizaveta Nugurmannova admitted that it turned out to be more difficult for her to take the exam than to compete.

“Still, I spent less time studying than figure skating.

True, in recent weeks I have been purposefully preparing for exams.

I am sure that the assessment will be worthy.

Do I have time to train?

I passed the exam in the Russian language - it's time to go out on the ice, ”RIA Novosti quotes Nugumannova.

And Alina Zagitova, who is completing the first course of the institute this year, showed how she prepares for the session.

Olympic champion Pyeongchang - 2018 studies at the Russian Academy of National Economy and Public Administration (RANEPA) in the direction of "Producing".

“The session is in full swing,” wrote Zagitova.

Skoptsova's forecast and Zagitova's shooting

At the end of May, Zagitova visited Japan, where the premiere of the film "Palma" with her participation took place.

Also, student Eteri Tutberidze performed for local fans with a show performance.

The event was filmed from a drone.

“I am grateful for the opportunity to participate in the filming for this film.

I was worried that the drone circling around might hit me.

But then I got used to it, I felt that he was flying high.

I was sent video messages to Russia from Japan with explanations.

I studied the topic a lot in order to dive deeper into it, ”Sports.ru quotes Zagitova with reference to the Japanese edition of TV Guide.

Like ordinary fans, the skaters did not stay away from the Euro 2020 taking place these days. Two-time world champion Evgenia Medvedeva watched the match of the Russian national team in the company of one of her dogs, and the champion of the junior Grand Prix Anastasia Skoptsova gave an unexpected forecast before the first game of the national team.

“For the first time in all my time, I have any high expectations from the Russian national team at a major tournament.

It seems to me that our guys really have a good chance to perform well.

An excellent team has gathered.

The guys are young and promising.

I watch many of them in clubs.

That is why I am betting that Russia will reach the semifinals!

Maybe it's too positive, but I see our guys there.

I wish them the best of luck.

Football is a game of mistakes.

Everyone accepts them.

Anything can happen, so just let the fortune be on the side of Cherchesov's team, ”Sport24 quotes Skoptsova as saying.

Confession of Semenovich and Plushenko Jr.'s Instagram page

In early May, multiple world champion Alena Savchenko announced her retirement.

After a month and a half, she changed her mind and announced her return.

This time, the figure skater of Ukrainian origin will play for the US national team, and her new partner will be Tommy-Joe Nyman.

According to the German media, the couple started training.

It is worth noting that over the past months, the Olympic champion, who has not taken part in competitions since 2018, has been actively training, learning to perform complex elements and even hinting that she is ready to switch to single skating.

The famous coach Nina Moser praised the return of Savchenko.

“If a person has a desire, then why not?

Maybe this is some kind of unique case.

In general, the next Olympic season will be very interesting in terms of the quality of skiing, ”Moser told TASS.

Another former partner, now a popular singer Anna Semenovich, said that she could also play for the US national team.

According to her, she received many offers from other countries, since in the late 1990s - early 2000s she was considered one of the best partners.

However, she decided to stay in Russia, and then completely leave the sport.

“I am happy that my destiny has turned out this way, I have acquired a magnificent career, lived an interesting life - not on the ice, in the cold, hunger and eternal training.

I believe that at that moment I did everything right - they offered me to skate for England, for the USA, they offered me to go to the States, to go to ballet, "Semenovich said in an interview with Vasily Konov.

Eight-year-old Alexander Plushenko is just beginning his career in sports, but he can already boast of an achievement that is important by today's standards.

Not long ago, Zagitova and Medvedeva fought for the first place in the number of Instagram followers among the current Russian figure skaters, and now both are overtaken by the son of a two-time Olympic champion.

At the moment, 908 thousand people have subscribed to his page, which is 16 thousand more than Evgenia's.

“The morning broke out with small but very good news!

For the ever-doubting, envious people, I post my coverage, which is 300 thousand more than my official data, ”Plushenko Jr. commented on his success.

Arseny Plushenko, who was born only last fall, follows in the footsteps of his older brother.

Parents have already opened an Instagram account for him, to which 17.6 thousand people have subscribed.

Fans are wondering if he will outshine Alexander in popularity.
