American journalist David Leese spoke about the team figure skating tournament at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing. He spoke about this on the YouTube channel TheSkatingLesson.
Liz called the absence of Mikhail Kolyada Eteri Tutberidze’s strategy in the team tournament. “Last time, when Russia had Mikhail Kolyada in their roster, they won silver. This time Kolyada has coronavirus. He will not be in the team, which means Russia will win gold, ”he believes.
According to the journalist, he is confident in Russia’s victory in the team tournament and expects a fight for silver medals. “The problem with the team tournament is that there are not so many really strong teams in the four disciplines. Therefore, the results are quite predictable,” Liz said.
Earlier, Liz spoke about raising the age limit in figure skating. “This could turn out to be a disaster for the Tutberidze team. Their 17-year-old skaters are barely holding on. Evgenia Medvedeva peaked at the 2017 Russian Championships and was a shadow of herself at the PyeongChang Olympics,” he said.
Liz is known for critical remarks about the Russian figure skating team. Together with fellow columnist Jonathan Beyer, he makes analytical videos and publishes them on the YouTube channel The Skating Lesson.
