On the evening of February 17, Beijing time, the women's free skating competition of figure skating at the Beijing Winter Olympics will be carried out, and this game has attracted much attention.
In the previous short program competition, Valieva's performance became the focus of the media and the audience. Despite some mistakes in the opening stages, Valieva quickly made adjustments and successfully completed the whole set of moves, scoring 82.16 points.
The music stopped, and Valieva burst into tears. Yes, in the past week, 15-year-old K Po has experienced too much.
From temporary bans, to lifting bans, to being targeted by the International Olympic Committee, the World Anti-Doping Organization, the International Skating Federation, and then to upholding the original judgment and being able to participate in subsequent races, Valieva seems to have taken several laps of the roller coaster.
As long as it plays normally, Vallieva has basically locked in a medal. As a short-track speed skating power, the Russian "three children" of this Winter Olympic Games have a top level.
In second place is Sherbayeva, who has 80.20 points, and her performance has been quite perfect.
In third place is Hanori Sakamoto, a 21-year-old Japanese player who appears last in the short show. With 79.84 points, Sakamoto Hanori's extremely accurate short program allowed her to get the highest score in her career and break the monopoly of "Sanwa".
Seeing the score come out, Sakamoto Couldn't hide her tears of excitement.
At the press conference after the match, a reporter asked Hanori Sakamoto, "Do you sympathize with Vallieva?" ”
Many athletes have chosen to avoid this question, but Sakamoto Hanori's personality is quite straightforward and does not hide: "Should I feel sorry for her?" I don't think so! ”
Hanori Sakamoto did not say too much, judging from her response, there are basically two reasons, first, as Kim Yeon-er and Lippinsky said, it is unfair for other athletes to let an athlete who is positive for doping participate in the Winter Olympics! Second, assuming that there is no Valieva, the short show plays perfectly Sakamoto Hanori, and the likelihood of winning the gold medal in the upset will be further increased.
So, what do you think Sakamoto Hanori did he think was in such a tough response to a question about Valieva?
