Athletistic/ Figure skating. Shortly before the end of 2023, many countries decide who will become the athlete of the year. In Georgia, this title was awarded to figure skater Anastasia Gubanova, who became European champion in Espoo, Finland, in January. She left Russia for Georgia in 2021. Honored figure skating coach of the USSR Tatyana Tarasova spoke about this.

– Gubanova is skating for Georgia, or what? I wasn’t thinking about her, so I wasn’t expecting it. “It’s none of my business,” Tarasov said, as quoted by Match TV.
