MOSCOW, January 26, Sergey Pogrebnyak. Alexandra figure skaters performing on ice Stepanova and Ivan Bukin are training in Moscow before the Olympics, the athletes' coach Irina Zhuk said. On Tuesday, it became known that three-time Russian champion Mikhail Kolyada would not compete at the Beijing Olympics due to a positive test result for coronavirus. He will be replaced by the first reserve team Evgeny Semenenko. In Krasnoyarsk, the Russian national figure skating team is scheduled to have a training camp before the start of the Olympics. “We don’t know yet whether we will fly to Krasnoyarsk or not. For now, we are training at our skating rink in Moscow,” said Zhuk.
