Figure skating is an absolute gold medallist, and the Russian figure skating team has finally announced the list of the Beijing Winter Olympics.
The most watched women's singles list is, unsurprisingly, the strongest configuration in the Russian women's singles: Kamila Valieva (K Bao, or now the K Emperor), Anna Shcherbakova (Thousand Gold), Alexandra Trusova (Sasha).
The three girls just played at the European Championships last week, winning gold, silver and bronze medals. Moreover, if there is no accident, the three of them will also be on the podium of the women's singles of figure skating in the Beijing Winter Olympics. All the audience will probably have to guess is whether the women's singles champion of the Beijing Winter Olympics belongs to K Bao, who has a record of frequent brushing in this season, or a Qianjin who is better at acting, or a Sasha who will complete the "May Fourth" configuration?
Can K Bao, a 15-year-old youngster who has just been promoted to the group, continue the glorious history of her sister Zagitova's "promotion to the olympic championship"? This is probably the biggest attraction of women's singles.
The three men's singles players are the new All-Russian champion and European champion Mark Kondrtiuk, the youngster and 2021 World Youth Champion Andrei Mozalev, and the "veteran" Mikhail Kolyada. Overall, the Impact of Russian Men's Singles Figure Skaters on the Podium was not large enough. But this year's season's new all-Russian champion "Little Brother" is also a dark horse, which is a "rare" stable player among Russian men's singles players. As a fan of Yu Yusuke, being able to compete with idols this time is also an additional bonus for "Little Margo"!
The list of ice dancers is: Sinitsina/Katsalapov, Stepanova/Bukin, Davis/Smolkin.
The list for pair skating is: Anastasia Mishina/Aleksandr Galliamov, Evgenia Tarasova/Vladimir Morozov and Aleksandra Boikova/Dmitrii Kozlovskii. It should be noted that for Chinese audiences, Russia's pair skaters are the most noteworthy! The three pairs, who are about to play in the Beijing Winter Olympics, also won the podium at the European Championships that just ended last week.
In particular, the MG group, who won the 2021 Figure Skating World Championships, have become the most important opponents of China's number one group, Sui Wenjing and Han Cong. It is believed that at the Beijing Winter Olympics, it will also become the most important opponent for the gold medal in pair skating with the Sui and Han combinations.
In addition to the increasing stability of the technical level, MG's free skating track "The Snowstorm & Time, Forward" this season is the theme song of the 1965 science fiction film of the same name, and it is also a very "Soviet era" feature, and this song with unique science fiction and industrial aesthetics will also make many Chinese audiences familiar.
So far, the list of Olympians in several major figure skating countries has been announced. Among them, there are naturally the "veterans of the three dynasties" who have attracted the most attention, and there are even more young young generals who spur the horse to be full of vigor. In the Olympic arena, in fact, there is no so-called "winning ticket in hand", and it may not necessarily push the front wave behind the wave. The Olympics is the Olympics, and if some people get what they want, some people regret losing their arms. But we must drum up and shout for every effort, every drop of sweat.
Come on, let's move to the future together!
