The Belgian won at the European Championships held in January Luna Hendrix . In total, she earned 213.25 points for the short and free programs. Tolyatti native Anastasia Gubanova (206.52), representing Georgia, won silver. The top three was closed by another representative of Belgium, Nina Pinzarrone (202.29).

– Yes, of course, I kept an eye on Nastya [Губановой] and was sick. Basically, I follow the guys who played for Russia and now represent other countries. I am also Adam Xiao Him Fa and Lukas Brichgi in men’s singles. There will be a lot of guys there who are still pretty young.

If Adam has already fulfilled his prize, then the others are catching up. The men’s singles is still progressing. Just like the women’s championship, but without our girls, the women’s singles is now on pause,” Danielyan was quoted as saying by “Sport Day by Day”.

Russian figure skaters have been suspended from participating in competitions held under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU) due to the situation in Ukraine.
