Athletistic/ Figure Skating. Not so long ago, English-language YouTube channel Olympic Skate posted a video titled: “Anna Shcherbakova looks smarter than everyone else for 3 minutes straight.”

In the video, you can see how Shcherbakova tells Elizaveta Tuktamysheva what she was asked in English; herself gives mature answers beyond her years at press conferences (including in a foreign language); and also tells on television that he invests his finances in stocks.

Currently, 18-year-old Anna, in addition to the triumph at the 2022 Olympics, is the 2021 world champion in singles and team tournaments, as well as the owner of two silver medals at the European Championships ( in 2020 and 2022).

After the Olympics, Shcherbakova also won the Channel One Cup in Saransk, where Russian figure skaters competed because they could not get to the World Championships in Montpellier (France).

Foreign figure skating fans praise Shcherbakova for her talent and intelligence.
