Bronze medalist of the Russian Championship Katharina Gerboldt told that there are many talented couples in Russia who could show good results on the international stage.
On Sunday, Alexandra Boykova and Dmitry Kozlovsky won the Kazan Grand Prix stage with a score of 232.71 points. Elizaveta Osokina and Artyom Gritsaenko finished second (206.10 points). Earlier, Natalya Khabibullina and Ilya Knyazhuk withdrew from the competition due to an injury of their partner.
— Only two couples competed at the Kazan stage. What does this mean? Can we say that pair skating in Russia is not going through its best period?
— I don’t think this means that pair skating in Russia is not going through an ideal period. It seems to me we have a lot of good couples growing up. Maybe someone isn’t mature enough yet. For some reason it just so happened that at this point there weren’t many couples. There are good couples who could adequately represent our country at world level if we are finally allowed to play,” Gerboldt told .
