(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Shin Chang-yong = The gold medalist was stunned by the unbelievable result, and the silver medalist said he would never do figure skating once more.

The athlete who everyone had predicted the gold medal was suffering from the ‘doping scandal’ and shed tears without saying a word at the poor result of placing 4th.

The atmosphere of the Russian Olympic Committee, which produced gold and silver medalists just before the awards ceremony for the women’s singles in figure skating at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing, was nothing short of a mess, unlike the dazzling results.

The Russian Olympic Committee swept the gold and silver medals in the women’s singles figure skating event that ended on the 17th at the Capital Indoor Stadium in Beijing, China.

Anta Sherbakova (255.95 points) and Alexandre Trusova (251.73 points) took the gold and silver medals side by side. The bronze medal was won by Kaori Sakamoto (233.13 points) of Japan.

Camilla Balieva, who was pointed out as a strong contender for the championship, but was engulfed in a ‘doping scandal’, stayed in fourth place with 224.09 points in a serious jump hunt.

Balieva was not alone in despair.

Silver medalist Trusova, following confirming her final ranking, cried out and hinted at her retirement, sparking a controversy over ‘swearing fingers’ on the podium.

In this day’s free skating, Trusova wrote a new history in Olympic free skating.

She became the first Olympic female athlete to land five quadruple jumps without falling in a single program.

Trusova, who finished fourth in the short program, rose to the top in the free skating score and climbed up the ranks.

In the short program, Trusova fell on a triple accelerator jump and was judged under rotated (when the number of rotations of the jump is less than 90 degrees or more and less than 180 degrees) It was only 74.60 points.

In free skating, attention was paid to the first quadruple flip, and in the triple toe loop connected to the quadruple toe loop, the performance score (GOE) was reduced due to a landing mistake.

Then, he was judged as a quarter landing (when the number of jump rotations was insufficient at 90 degrees) by quadruple lutz, but was evaluated as the best free skating he has ever shown.

Trusova had a satisfactory performance on her own in free skating, and Balieva, a strong contender for the title, must have had high hopes for the win following making several mistakes.

However, Trusova was not able to take the top spot by a total of 4.22 points behind Sherbakova.

According to Archyde.com, Trusova pushed out coach Getteri Tutverize following confirming the final standings and screamed, “I will never try once more in the Olympics.”

“Everyone but me has a gold medal,” Trusova cried. “I hate skating. I really hate it. I hate this sport. I will never skate once more. Never” he cried. .

Coach Tutverize tried to exaggerate, but to no avail. Trusova’s thorny horse was captured on the TV screen.

Trusova’s statement that all of them have gold medals seems to be referring to the team event.

Trusova, who was dissatisfied with not being able to participate in the team event, exploded when she failed to win a gold medal in the individual event.

Afterwards, Trusova caused another controversy at the awards ceremony when she raised her middle finger while holding a doll.

There are speculations that he may have used abusive fingers, but in another photo, the middle finger is not seen, so there is a good chance that it may be an incident.

“I haven’t won a major in three years,” Trusova said at the official press conference that followed. “I always worked towards my goal. I always added more quadruple jumps.” I thought it was. But that didn’t happen. That’s why I was angry.”

Trusova is famous as the only woman in the world to officially succeed in four types of quadruple jumps (lutz, flip, salko, and toe loop).

Trusova won the Junior World Championships, but failed to make it to the top following debuting on the senior stage in 2019.

He won a bronze medal at the World Championships in Stockholm last year, and his best performance was the bronze medal at the European Championships in 2020 and 2022.

To the question ‘Why did you cry?’, Trusova answered, “I just wanted to do that. That’s why I cried.” “I spent three weeks without a mother or a dog. That’s why I cried.”
