Athletistic / Figure skating. Russian figure skater Evgenia Medvedeva reacted to the death of commentator Vasily Utkin. He died yesterday at the age of 52.

According to Medvedeva, she learned commentary work from Utkin.

“We met Vasily not so long ago on a joint project, but I understood the scale of this man’s personality. When I just started commenting, my environment insisted that I studies the works of Vasily. Vocabulary, speed of thinking, knowledge base, sharp mind, sense of humor. Neither I nor most of us will ever reach this level. It’s a shame that such people leave so early,” Medvedeva wrote on her Telegram channel.
