Eteri Tutberidze, the under fire figure skating coach, has responded after a strong backlash to her treatment of Kamila Valieva at the Winter Olympics, saying she is «at a loss» after criticism from IOC president Thomas Bach. Russia claimed gold and silver in the ladies' singles but the post-event atmosphere was not one of celebration. Anna Shcherbakova spoke of feeling an «emptiness inside» after winning the gold medal, while her team-mates, Valieva and Alexandra Trusova, were left very upset after the competition at Beijing 2022.
