Figure skater Maria Agayeva She said she was sick before the season started and was also recovering from an injury.
Earlier, the figure skater’s coach, Vera Latkina, told that before the start of the season, Agayeva contracted the coronavirus.
On Tuesday at the Moscow Championships, Agayeva scored 64.92 points and became second in the short program.
“I’m in a fighting mood, I really want to show the best of myself.” I missed a good part of the off-season: at the beginning my leg hurt, I didn’t ride for almost three weeks, then I got sick for two weeks before September. I went out and started getting in shape.
What happened to the leg? We didn’t skate for a month, our skates dried out and on the second day we started trying to jump. I crushed my leg. They did not change the skates, I began to undergo physiotherapy: first they removed the swelling, then this growth.
I intend to participate in the Grand Prix stages. It seems that I should go on stage in Magnitogorsk. Due to the low season there are no quadruple jumps yet, which are easy. I skip a little Salchow and Trixel. I’m starting to work on them. Everything is new. I hope you see ultra-si on stage. I will work very, very hard on this,” reports the correspondent, according to Agayeva’s words.
