World figure skating champion Elizaveta Tuktamysheva is a legendary person and deserves a monument for working for so many years in elite sport, choreographer Alexei Zheleznyakov told .
On Wednesday, RIA Novosti Sport reported that 26-year-old Tuktamysheva would not participate in competitions in the upcoming season and would focus on ice shows.
— The competition will lose some of its shine, because Lisa is an integral part of all tournaments. In women’s single skating, she is a legendary person who lasted the longest, showing good results, and without her, the competition would lack a little spice. It’s a shame she decided to stop acting, but it was planned. I bow to Lisa, a monument can be erected to her for the fact that she worked in elite sport for so many years. Figure skating is a dangerous sport; Not everyone is able to hold on and compete for that long.
I appreciate any decision Lisa makes. Since she decided to concentrate on show programs, to ride, to breathe a little, then her decision must be accepted. Maybe she will come back,” Zheleznyakov told .
Tuktamysheva is 2015 world champion, 2021 world vice-champion, 2015 European champion, winner of the Grand Prix Series final of the 2014/15 season. The athlete was announced for the new season as part of the Russian national team. Tuktamysheva was entered for the Russian Grand Prix stages of the new season in Krasnoyarsk (October 27-30) and Moscow (November 24-27).
