Russian Skaters Allowed to Compete as Neutrals (AIN) to Qualify for 2026 Winter Olympics

Russian media reports Petrosian headed to China with the `federation representatives and a physio'. Guess her father didn't have to fly after all

Was Shvetsky promoted to physio?

That would be the ultimate troll move.

Tutberidze is in China. One Russian media outlet writes `Petrosian will have support off ice' , the other - `an accredited coach has a right to be next to any skater'. Am not quite sure how is she accredited? With Gubanova for Georgia? As a Russian fed official?

ETA: As part of the Georgian federation.

So much for “neutral”…

So much for “neutral”…

So much for "if she talks to anyone else, she'll be banned" as well.

Talking to Ted is the most ostentatious rule breaking of the day! Ostentatious flagrant and flamboyant

But seriously, what did they expect with this "rule"?
It's not like you can supervise them at all times and Eteri just happens to be Adeliia's coach, so I guess this is fine.
