“Grassl’s decision to work with Tutberidze indicates that he is strong-minded” – Goncharenko

Honored coach of Russia in figure skating Inna Goncharenko believes that the Italian’s decision Daniel Grassl training in the group of Russian coach Eteri Tutberidze, despite all the negativity, speaks of the inner strength of the skater.

Japanese figure skater Shoma Uno has won the world championship which takes place in Saitama. Grassl showed the 12th result.

– Many athletes reach their peak at a later age. Growing up is not only when arms and legs grow, it is also psychological maturation. Of course, the fact that, despite all the negative moments, still made such a choice, suggests that the boy is strong in spirit. There will come a time, I think so. An athlete must be a person, must defend his interests. Even if they are wrong, he still has to go through this stage of his life and become stronger. Let’s see, I don’t want to get ahead of ourselves,” Goncharenko told Gazeta.Ru.

Russian skaters did not participate in the world championships by decision of the International Skating Union (ISU).
