Athletistic/ Figure skating. This week, the World Figure Skating Championships took place in Montreal, Canada. American figure skater Ilya Malinin won the men’s singles skating title. He broke the world record for the number of points for a free skate. At the same time, the record for total points continues to belong to his compatriot Nathan Chen. The famous Russian coach Alexander Zhulin spoke about this.

– From a technical point of view, Malinin is a genius. Reaching such a level at 19 years old, performing six quadruple jumps, including a quadruple axel, is simply phenomenal! Ilya takes figure skating to a completely different level,” Zhulin was quoted as saying by Match TV.
