A few days ago, the 2022 World Figure Skating Championships officially kicked off, due to the end of the Beijing Winter Olympics, including Yusheng Jiexian, Chen Wei, Sui Wenjing, Han Cong, etc. many famous players have chosen to retire. The Chinese team has previously announced that it will not participate in the World Championships due to the impact of the epidemic worldwide and the physical condition of athletes. The Russian figure skating team was banned by the International Skating Federation due to the external environment, and the Russian "three dolls" that ice fans are most looking forward to have no chance to give a wonderful performance for everyone again.
Interestingly, while the Russians were unable to compete, their coach, Tarasova, and the technical instructors seemed to be a little reluctant to be lonely. After the women's singles short program competition, it was even more mocking that "even if the Japanese player Sakamoto Hanori, who is currently ranked first, wins the championship, her strength is not comparable to that of the Russian team's Sherbakova, Vallieva, etc., and this Japanese girl is only the level of figure skating women's singles 20 years ago." As this remark was exposed in front of the media, the world figure skating world also sparked a wide range of discussions.
Former Olympic runner-up in men's singles and Russian ice prince Pushshenko said that Tarasova, as the meritorious coach who has cultivated the most Olympic champions in the history of the Russian figure skating team, she is very objective in her evaluation of the situation of the women's singles competition at the World Championships. The lack of the Russian teams Wallieva, Serbakova and Trusova's World Championships cannot represent the highest level in the world today. Some netizens believe that this is the performance of Russian figure skating coaches who are in a high position and play big names, even if the three female singles players of the Russian team lead the world figure skating competition, they can even win the top three.
But this practice of "slapping someone and then giving a sweet date to eat" should be criticized, which is a naked satire on the Japanese players and a disrespect for all the contestants in the women's singles of the World Championships. After the fermentation of the incident, many domestic netizens also joined the army of "saliva". Some people humorously said that Sakamoto Hanori is also a bronze medalist in the women's singles of the Beijing Winter Olympics, although her strength is not as good as Russia's "Sanwa", but in the competition with other players, she can still find full confidence.
Some people also said that if even Sakamoto Hanori was only at the level of 20 years ago, wouldn't the Chinese women's singles players still hover in the last century? At the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics, Zhu Yi, a women's singles player in figure skating in China, ranked first from the bottom among 6 players in the team final, and the subsequent women's singles competition also failed to enter the free skating. After the game, the coaching staff of the Chinese skating team was questioned by the outside world in terms of talent training and selection of lineups. What do you think of the comments that the Russian figure skating coaches are rationally mixed with showing off?
