2021 Russian Nationals Pairs SP

[Frau Muller]

T/M really brought it today. It seems that they mean business this year, after all they’ve been through.

Innocent question: Where is their former coach Mozer (aka “Elton John”)? Wasn’t she a coach of many pairs teams not that long ago? Did she retire? I didn’t see her with any team today. Sorry if it’s already been discussed; just catching up.

She's pretty much retired. She may visit her rink occasionally, but the everyday running of things is up to the 3 main coaches (Zhovnirsky, Tarasov, Ushakova).

I haven't seen Zhovnirsky in a kiss and cry all year, maybe he stays in the rink and runs things while the others go with their competing pairs.

Morozov is rocking that icon painter from a Tarkovsky film look.

Loved the flower girl who went out too early and had to be pulled back to be off the ice while T/M took their bows.
