Russian figure skaters are still first in the team tournament at the 2022 Olympics in Beijing, so Canadians’ attempts to win bronze medals do not cause emotions, the honored coach of Russia told . Alexandre Jouline .
Canada’s National Olympic Committee (NOC) said it believes Team Canada should win bronze at the 2022 Olympic team tournament and is exploring the possibility of appealing the International Skating Union’s decision ( ISU) to review the tournament results.
—What were Canadians like at the time? Fourth? Yes, whether they get bronze, we still won’t get it. That does not bother me. For us, we are always first, and whoever gets the result after first place will not bother me,” Zhulin told .
At the end of January, the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) disqualified the Russian figure skater Kamila Valieva four years for anti-doping rule violations. The disqualification period begins on December 25, 2021. Valieva’s dismissal led to a review of the results of the 2022 Olympics team tournament, where the Russian team won. First place is now awarded to the American team, the Japanese are second and the Russians will receive bronze. Team Canada remained fourth.
