“It’s very interesting how the awards ceremony will go” – Khudayberdieva on the decision on the team figure skating tournament at the 2022 Olympics

Russian figure skater Elizaveta Khudaiberdieva told that she was happy that the medal story of the team figure skating tournament at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing was finally over, and also wondered how the issue of awarding the winners would be resolved.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has rejected the Canadian side’s appeal against the results of the team figure skating tournament at the 2022 Olympic Games in Beijing. The Russian athletes retained their bronze medal.

— The Russian team won the bronze medal in the team tournament at the Beijing Olympic Games.

First of all, I am very glad that everything is over for our guys. For all of us, they are deserved champions, but things happened this way. Two and a half years of confusion, misunderstanding and complete confusion. Congratulations to Mark, Nastya and Sasha, Vika and Nikita. And now it is very interesting to know how the award ceremony will take place.

PS And of course, we are following Megan Duhamel’s comments on the social network bought by Elon Musk,” Khudayberdieva told .

The Russian team won the team tournament, but after Kamila Valieva was disqualified for an anti-doping rule violation, the results of the competition were revised. The International Skating Union (ISU), after canceling Valieva’s results, placed the American team in first place, the Japanese team in second place, and the Russian team was supposed to receive bronze. Team Canada, which placed fourth, also claimed third place by filing an appeal with CAS against the ISU decision.

Thus, the American team with 65 points took first place in the tournament, the Japanese team (63) took second place, and the Russian team (54) took third place. Valieva, Mark Kondratyuk, Anastasia Mishina and Alexander Gallyamov, Victoria Sinitsina and Nikita Katsalapov performed for the Russian team in Beijing.

Earlier it was reported that the medal ceremony, which will be attended by Americans and Japanese, will take place on August 7 in Paris.
