Yana Rudkovskaya stated that figure skating has long surpassed football in ratings.
“My husband plays media league for the Broke Boys. And my middle son plays for the Brokes. He is a professional footballer, he used to train at Torpedo. And Sasha loves football.
But figure skating has long surpassed Russian football in ratings. This is already clear. Our girls are leaders. And sports couples take first, second or third places. And with the advent of Mark Kondratyuk, Andrey Mozalev, Makar Ignatov, Dima Aliyev, Misha Kolyada, Zhenya Semenenko, we can be calm regarding men.
Figure skating gathers more spectators than our football. There are ratings! It has been bypassing the ratings for two years already! And ratings, like facts, are a stubborn thing, ”said the producer.
