But I fear the big thing yesterday was less what happened on the ice than the news of Evegnia Medvedeva having COVID. It's particularly painful to hear she has it, after all she's been through, but the news that anyone in Tutberidze's group has it is downright scary. You know that woman doesn't prioritize the safety of her students, after all.
(Especially when the Russians seem not to be protecting themselves very well in general. Could someone *please* tell them the masks go over the nose?)
Meanwhile, the more we have to pay for skating coverage, the worse it gets when someone fails to pull the switch or whatever and the live coverage doesn't happen. I'm left wondering how many times that happens on Peacock's live streams in general. Because of that, I still haven't seen much of the ice dance, though I saw enough of the the rhythm dance to wonder at certain aspects of the scoring. Thanks to that, I'm actually not in much of a hurry to watch the winners, honestly.
I haven't seen much of the pairs either, but I have seen most of the singles. I suppose I am glad to see Liza T is still capable of beating the baby ballerinas, though of course Kostornaia was down her top jump, and Alexandra Trusova still very much seems to be cracking in general. But I'll be way more glad if none of them are reported as sick after this.
