Russian figure skater, European champion – 2020 Alena Kostornaya has decided to change both programs – short and free – before the start of the Canadian Grand Prix, reports “Match TV”.
At the Finlandia Trophy tournament, where student Eteri Tutberidze took third place, she starred in the boxing short under “I Am The One” performed by Beth Hart, and in the free skate – under the song “Winter” by Antonio Vivaldi.
Now Kostornaya will be skating on the song “New York, New York” by Frank Sinatra, and in the free program – on the song “Lovely” by Billie Eilish.
At Skate Canada, Russia is expected to be represented by Kamila Valieva, Elizaveta Tuktamysheva, Alena Kostornaya, Alexander Samarin, Evgeny Semenenko, Makar Ignatov, sports couple Daria Pavlyuchenko and Denis Khodykin, as well as dance duos Elizaveta Shanaeva and David Narizhny and Diana Davis and Gleb Smolkin.
Earlier it was reported that Russian coaches and skaters obtained passports with Canadian visas participate in the second stage of the Grand Prix in Vancouver. This was reported by the press service of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR).
