Figure skater Ignatov: “It was nice to hear Tarasova say that she is my fan”

Figure skater Makar Ignatov said he was happy to hear the praise of the honored coach of the USSR Tatyana Tarasova .

On Sunday, Ignatov performed a free program at the Championships in St. Petersburg. The skater scored 263.80 points based on the sum of two days of competition.

— I liked the first half – how I skated and how I executed the elements. In the second, after the axel, I was uncertain, on the flip I caught some turbulence. Apart from this failure, I am happy with the rental. A good start before the Spartakiad.

We are performing on an important date: 80 years since the lifting of the siege of Leningrad. It’s good that the public came to support us on a day like that.

Do I know that Tarasova said she was a fan of me at the show jumping championship? I heard that it is very pleasant and valuable for me that such a person speaks like this about me. I remember that earlier Tatiana Anatolyevna also said good things about me. “I listened after the performance, I was happy,” reports correspondent, according to Ignatov’s words.
