Russian figure skater Anna Shcherbakova told what was the most difficult at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing. Her words are quoted by the official website of the Olympic Games.
“Expectation. This was by far the most difficult. We arrived here about two weeks before the personal performances. This is a lot, ”the athlete shared. According to the new Olympic champion, the classes in Beijing were very different from the usual training process and they were completely insufficient to get in shape.
“Emotionally, it was also difficult – we are used to coming to competitions and being recharged by this atmosphere. Personally, it charges me very much and helps me to give the maximum at the competitions, ”said the figure skater. She noted that she understood that she could waste this energy in the first days in training, and in the end it could turn into a monotonous routine.
Earlier, Shcherbakova spoke about her emotions after winning the Beijing Games. “It’s hard to say how I would feel if there was no drama. She wasn’t ready to be happy. As if all emotions had ended, ”said the athlete. She noted that she had no thoughts in her head, only emptiness and joy.
On February 17, Shcherbakova won Olympic gold with a total of 255.95 points. Her compatriot Alexandra Trusova is in second place with 251.73 points. She set a historic milestone by jumping five quadruple jumps in the free skate. Another Russian woman Kamila Valieva stopped in fourth place.
