After waiting for a few days, the problem of drug testing of Russian figure skater Vallieva finally came to an end, and after experiencing the "ban storm", the International Court of Arbitration for Sport officially announced that Vallieva was allowed to participate in the women's singles skating competition, but if Vallieva won the medal, the women's singles award ceremony would be cancelled.
As a women's singles title favorite, the probability of Valieva winning a medal is very large, and other Russian strongmen are also expected to win gold, so it is a great pity not to enjoy the awards.
An interesting point in the discussion of the Valieva incident is that in the international competition, Valieva did not detect the banned drug, but there was a problem in the domestic competition, which to a certain extent also shows the great pressure of domestic competition in the Russian figure skating project, which is notoriously rolled.
As a newly rising advantage of the project, Russia's strong history of figure skating is not long, the sport began to recover in 2000, the Olympic bid in 2007 became a key node, followed by Sotnikova, Lipniskaya, Medvedeva and other famous players have risen, the dominance of Russian figure skating has gradually consolidated, after the Beijing Winter Olympics, Russia Sanwa has become a recognized women's singles champion favorite (Trusova, Sherbakova and Vallieva)
And the situation in other countries in the advantage of the project in the case of the same, Russian figure skating in the rise of the rise at the same time opened the door of the inner roll, the requirements of the players are getting higher and higher, in order to be able to make the body more flexible and light, age has become an important standard, the reason is similar to Japan in order to enhance the influence of table tennis, the use of young players to enhance the reaction is similar, before the arrival of Russian players, 15 years old has become an important breakthrough, due to competitive pressure, basically after the age of 18 players are no longer able to have an advantage, basically announced to withdraw from the front line, Most of the athletes can only catch up with one Olympic Games, and the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic champion women's singles Grand Slam winner Zagitova, who was regarded as a talented girl, left the field at the age of 17 and missed the Beijing Winter Olympics.
To some extent, the inner volume of Russian figure skating is more terrifying than the national table tennis, although the national table tennis also tends to be younger, but there are still Liu Shiwen, Ma Long and other 30-year-old main players, but the figure skating project is generally low in age, which is related to the figure skating sport itself, and it is also inseparable from the Russian inner roll.
Previously, the Olympic figure skating silver medal advocate Dan had publicly discussed the issue of Russian figure skating inner roll, saying that the three players sent by Russia could not show their full strength, but only sent three excellent figure skaters, which showed the overall combat effectiveness of Russian figure skating.
When female athletes in other countries are still struggling to jump in three weeks, Russian players have been able to master the four-week jump, as netizens said: "They forcibly opened the women's four-week era", among the 160+ female players recorded in the world, all four are from Russia, which is more intuitive proof of the strength of Russian figure skating.
Today, the Beijing Winter Olympics is likely to replicate the glory of the 21st World Championships, Sanwa won the championship and runner-up together, sad that this may be the most brilliant time in the careers of the three little girls, because soon there will be latecomers to catch up, unfortunately, even if the Beijing Olympic Games get a medal, as long as Vallieva wins, the audience will not have the opportunity to witness the three players standing on the podium together.
