Athletistic / Figure skating. Russian figure skater Evgenia Medvedeva, silver medalist at the 2018 Olympic Games in Pyeongchang, South Korea, spoke about how she felt after joining Canadian coach Brian Orser.

She started training with a specialist after the Olympics. Before that, Medvedeva trained with Eteri Tutberidze.

Medvedeva explained why she left Tutberidze for Orser after the 2018 Olympics

“As an athlete, it was a difficult time. I got really beat up in terms of competitive practice. Then I trained so hard that I saw something that wasn’t even there. But then I exhaled, looked around and realized it didn’t exist.

There are a lot of people who love me. Some even start to cry when they see me. It was not good for sports results, but I grew there as a person,” Medvedeva said in her documentary.
