“He could impose a serious fight for the first place” – Enbert on skipping the Russian Figure Skating Championship by Kolyada

2018 Olympics silver medalist Alexander Enbert in a conversation with expressed the opinion that Mikhail Kolyada could compete for first place in the Russian figure skating championship, if not for illness.

Earlier, Kolyada’s coach Alexei Mishin told that the athlete will miss the tournament due to health issues.

– Here you have to look at the form in which he could approach the tournament. If he lacks form, then the Russian championship should be missed. During the season, Misha has not been successful, but he is a strong athlete with excellent skating and a good set of elements. He could impose a serious fight for the first place. He has a lot of fans and fans, of course, for people who follow figure skating closely, it is very unpleasant.

You can talk for a long time about his excellent skating, but we are all waiting for his clean skates, and the Russian Championship could be the tournament where he demonstrates them. I’m offended because he misses this tournament, we are friends with Misha, we played together in the Olympics on the same team. I know from my own experience that it is very unpleasant to miss the Russian Championship. Perhaps the lack of selection for the European Championship and the World Championship will soften Misha’s emotional state, but it is also important to defend his position at the Russian level. It’s definitely a loss for the Russian league, Enbert told .

The Russian Championship will take place from December 22 to 25 in Krasnoyarsk.
