Coach of the silver medalist of the Russian Figure Skating Championship Pierre Gumennik Veronika Daineko told about her student’s illness, due to which he was forced to miss the championship in St. Petersburg.
Earlier, 20-year-old Gumennik told that he pulled out of the competition due to high temperature.
Petya fell ill suddenly. He trains in the morning, he calls me that the temperature has risen, he can’t get up. Yesterday I had a good workout, and today 38.8. We’re going to lower the temperature, but it’s useless, he can’t stand it, we’re not going to risk it. I myself am in shock. It’s good that it happened now, and not before the Grand Prix Final,” Daineko told .
At the Russian Figure Skating Championship in Krasnoyarsk, Gumennik took second place. Evgeny Semenenko became the champion.
The Saint Petersburg tournament will take place from January 28 to 29.
