2020 European vice-champion in figure skating Arthur Danielyan told that in the men’s tournament of the European Championships in Lithuania, the only intrigue was who would occupy the second and third places after the Frenchman Adam Xiao Lui Fa .
The European Championships took place in January in Kaunas (Lithuania). The Russians did not compete due to their exclusion from international competitions due to the situation in Ukraine. Adam Xiao Him Fa won the singles competition for the second year in a row. Based on the sum of the two programs, the 22-year-old athlete obtained 276.17 points. The second place was taken by the representative of Estonia, Alexander Selevko (256.99). Italian Matteo Rizzo won bronze (250.87).
Belgian Luna Hendricks won the women’s competition, Georgian Anastasia Gubanova took silver and Belgian Nina Pinzarrone took bronze.
“I enjoyed watching the last European Championship and I would like to congratulate the guys. Adam is something unattainable! It was immediately obvious that he was the winner. There was intrigue as to who would take second or third place and beyond. Sasha Selevko and Vova Samoilov (playing for Poland, 8th place) are also excellent. I was especially happy for Sasha because he did well with his jumps in this tournament.
Among the girls, I really liked Nastya (Gubanova). Every day I see how she works, gives her all, prepares for tournaments. He’s a great person. The girls had a very intense fight,” Danielyan told .
The St. Petersburg championship began on Saturday at the Figure Skating Academy. Danielyan received 72.77 points for her short program and is in 10th place. The athletes will present their free program on Sunday.
