After a three-week jump error in the short show Axel, Valieneva had more problems in the free skating race. Free-skating 7 sets of jumps, Vallieva only managed to complete 2 of them, and also fell twice. In the end, Vallieva, who ranked first in the short program, only finished fifth in the free skating, and ranked fourth in the overall score.
After the International Court of Arbitration for Sport announced its decision to allow Vallieva to continue to compete in women's singles competitions, the International Olympic Committee immediately stated that if Vallieva entered the top three women's singles, there would be no flower ceremony or medals awarded during the Winter Olympics. Vallieva's eventual missing out on the podium seems to have given a lot of relief to many people – at least the girls who won the top three can receive their own "ice piers" and medals. The medals are given to their owners and the ceremony is held as usual, but is this really a happy ending for everyone?
Since the exposure of Valieva's positive doping test, she is not yet 16 years old, and her collapse during the women's singles free skating competition is not difficult to understand. As after the short show competition, Valieva once again quickly passed through the mixed mining area with a tissue box after the free skating competition, leaving a room full of reporters looking at her back or trying to follow.
But while Valieva was under pressure alone, her coach, Tutty Lizer, could always stay out of the way. Tuti Lize and her coaching staff have always been known for being strict with athletes, and the figure skating community has always been critical of tutty Lize coaching team's concept of strict weight control over athletes, high-intensity training, and allowing young athletes to practice difficult jumps. While the attention of the outside world is all focused on Valieva, have you ever wondered how much of a leading role she has in the whole thing in the midst of the storm? Is Tu special Lize the one who should be held accountable?
It is worth mentioning that after The end of Vallieva's game, the broadcast camera captured Thatuti Lize still harshly accused her of "why give up" for the first time after the game. Trusova, who completed five four-week jumps and won a silver medal, was in tears and moody in the mixed picking area after the game, and while not satisfied with the results, Trusova also mentioned that she "hated skating". Trusova and Vallieva also trained under Tuti Lize, and once left Tutty Lize's coaching staff because of a disagreement.
The Valieva incident finally gave the real situation of the Tuti Lize training team a chance to expose the tip of the iceberg, but will the attention of the outside world be silenced because of Valieva's failure to reach the podium? The result of the women's singles competition may seem like a fair situation of "belonging to the owner", but the controversy and attention raised by the Valieva incident have not yet reached the end.
