Honored Coach of the USSR Tatyana Tarasova told that the skater Alexandre Samarin I have not pursued my career to the best of my abilities.
On Saturday, Samarin announced his retirement after performing his free program at the Spartakiad of the Strongest. Alexander took last place in Magnitogorsk.
— The career is good, but not the best. Sasha has always skated, jumped and stood out during competitions.
“His career is based more on his strong character than on his natural abilities. Do you agree with this?
“Hard work is the greatest talent,” Tarasova told .
Samarin is 25 years old, at the 2019 European Championships he won a silver medal in single skating and at the 2019 World Team Championships he became a bronze medalist.
