Figure skater Matvei Yanchenkov told he received a message from his mother asking him to find some tape after a situation with a broken shoelace Artem Gritsaenko at the Russian Championship.
During a free program at the Russian Championship, Elizaveta Osokina and Gritsaenko were forced to stop their performance due to a broken shoelace from their partner. The Perm couple took eighth place. Yanchenkov and Ekaterina Chikmareva became bronze medalists of the tournament.
— Did you see the problem Osokina and Gritsaenko had with a broken shoelace? Did this situation confuse you?
-Catherine: I didn’t see what happened to Lisa and Artem.
—Matvey: I saw it. Of course, this came as a bit of a shock. My mom was in the stands and she immediately started texting me asking me to get some tape to tie my shoelaces in case something happened. This already happened to me during a tournament where a lace came untied during the program.
