17-year-old Russian woman Adelina Sotnikova is the new queen of ice. The day before, the skater made a splash at the Sochi Olympics, winning a gold medal. Sotnikova became the first figure skater in the history of Soviet and Russian figure skating to win gold in single skating at the Winter Olympics.
The young star of the Olympics Yulia Lipnitskaya, who became the champion in the team performances of figure skaters, this time was not in shape. During the free program, the girl fell on the ice. As a result, Julia was the fifth.
Adelina Sotnikova performed perfectly. Graceful and practically error-free. The judges gave the girl 149, 95 points (in total for two performances - 224, 59). Silver was won by Yu-Na Kim from South Korea, who came to Sochi as the champion of the 2010 Games in Vancouver. Bronze went to Italian Carolina Costner.
The 17-year-old figure skater brought Russia the seventh gold medal at the 2014 Olympics.
“I have been going to this for a very long time. Even though I am only 17 years old, I dreamed of performing at the Olympics. I'm in shock now. During the announcement of Yu-Na's assessment, I was more worried than during the performance, the young champion confessed to the Championship.com publication. “She's been through a lot. I am very happy for her. Adeline did a great job and always found a way to get up after setbacks. It has a strong core inside. I have no words, I am proud of her! She is a wonderful athlete,”said Elena Buyanova, coach of Adeline.
The girl has already been congratulated not only by her colleagues, but also by the stars. “We have two lovely girls! Both Julia and Adelina became Olympic champions in Sochi! Congratulations! This is a historic moment! " - wrote Yana Rudkovskaya. “Adeline !!!! Good !!! Thank you Vodorezova! Thank you Tagaeva! Thanks to Chernyshev! Thanks to her mom !!!!! Thank you, Adelina! " - admires the skater Alexei Yagudin.
