European ice dancing champion Sergei Novitsky commented on the decision of the Russian figure skater Elizaveta Tuktamysheva do not participate in competitions in the 2023/24 season.
“Probably, Elizabeth now wants to rest, like any other living person.” His desire to take a break or move on is completely understandable,” Novitsky told RT.
— Should we expect an imminent retirement announcement?
— I don’t consider myself a prophet, but Tuktamysheva has been practicing this sport for many years and we can say that she has achieved almost everything. I consider conversations on this topic more speculative, but it could also probably happen. Either way, it will be difficult for him to come back, because at that time the juniors from yesterday will approach with their quadruple jumps and it will be difficult to enter this bracket.
The 26-year-old Russian is the 2015 world champion and silver medalist at the 2021 World Figure Skating Championships.
