Russian figure skater Vladislav Dikidji admitted to feeling pressure before performing at the Spartakiad of the Strongest in Magnitogorsk.
Dikidzhi scored 283.48 points at the Spartakiad and took third place. The winner of the competition was Evgeniy Semenenko (304.40 points).
— My coach and I prepared very seriously for the Spartakiad. Personally, I just had more worries. In general, it’s difficult for me to perform well at the very beginning. And there, after everything I had accomplished this season, I didn’t want to disappoint or upset anyone. I wanted both my parents and Oleg Stanislavovich [Татауров], and everyone who believes in me and supports me was satisfied with the impeccable results. So that I myself can be satisfied. That really put the pressure on,” quotes RT Dikiji.
