Bronze medalist at the World Championships Elena Radionova told that she considered the American Ilya Malinina favorite for the 2024 World Cup.
The competitive part of the tournament in Montreal (Canada) will take place from March 20 to 23. Malinin won an ISU Grand Prix stage, the series finals and the U.S. Figure Skating Championships this season.
— I won’t watch closely, I’m more interested in Russian competitions. It will be interesting to see Malinin’s performance, if he will do a quadruple axel. Ilya is the big favorite of the tournament, there is a very high probability that he will win the title,” Radionova told .
Russian athletes will miss the tournament due to the decision of the International Skating Union.
