In the waiting area on the sidelines, Shasha looked nervously at Camila on the court!
Judging from the completion of the opening actions, the doping scandal had little impact on Camilla's state.
Once she gets 3 Aclea, judging from past scores, no one will be her opponent in the short program!
Also paying attention is Japanese player Kaori Sakamoto. Among the 25 women's single skaters, she is the strongest in terms of strength except for the three Russians.
Facing the Russian matryoshka doll with a gap in strength, Kaori Sakamoto had originally given up her desire for a podium in the Winter Olympics!
It was only Camilla's doping scandal that gave her hope.
Figure skating has its own unique charm, and it tests the players' on-the-spot state.
No matter how strong a player's past record is, as long as they don't perform well on the spot, they will still be as brilliant as fireworks.
The biggest factor that affects a player's on-field performance is off-field factors. Kaori Sakamoto never believed that Camilla could still be clean under such heavy pressure!
On the ice rink, Camila, who was skating on her back, turned around lightly, slid on the front edge of her left foot, and then jumped forward with all her strength!
That's it?
Not high enough! Definitely can't be done!
This jump is much shorter than in the team competition.
The opponents and media who were watching the game on the sidelines were very happy!
Obviously, public opinion and outside pressure still have an impact on Camilla.
Just when they started to think about Camila falling on the ice, there was a "bang!", Camila's right foot hit the ice with the outside edge, and landed firmly on the ice!
Clean! How can it be!
The opponents on the sidelines who were looking forward to her brilliant fall were all stunned!
They couldn't believe their eyes!
With the world's attention, despite repeated attempts and failures before the game, how could Camila, who had just attended the seven-hour hearing last night and not even had time to take a good rest, complete the opening 3A? !
"She did it! Old scholar, she did it!" Wang Rui said excitedly, holding Li Guodong's hand in the stands.
"The competition isn't over yet. It's not too late to get excited when you get the gold medal."
Li Guodong's tone was unusually calm, as if he was talking about an insignificant thing, but the raised corners of his eyes fully explained his mood at the moment.
On the sidelines, Chinese figure skating head coach Zhao Hongbo muttered to himself after seeing Camilla's success: "Isn't the height high enough to speed up the speed?"
"I discovered problems during the warm-up before the game and changed my jumping habits on the spot... What a big heart... The same big heart as Li Yuang."
Zhao Hongbo can see that the current Camilla has reached the peak of her career. The next step is the growth stage, as long as it can be passed smoothly. With her stability, even if she is older, she will still be able to compete on the world stage.
Having said that, even in Milan four years later, Camilla is now full of lolita, and in Russia, where talent is abundant every year, it still takes some luck to break out of the siege.
[Maybe... there is still a chance! 】
Yes, Zhao Hongbo has not given up the idea of naturalizing Camilla. In his opinion, even if Camilla competes on behalf of China after retiring, she will still be stronger than domestic players of the right age!
Ever since he watched Camilla's warm-up performance in 2019, he has "never forgotten" Camilla. However, after the Olympic Organizing Committee allowed Russian athletes to participate, the plans of the year were in vain...
And now, Li Yuang's relationship with Camilla has given him hope again!
——
On the ice rink, Camila, who finished 3A in the opening game, became better and better skating, and she felt lighter and lighter on the ice.
The entire program seemed to have been given a new life, illustrating the process of Purple Butterfly fighting against fate and removing the shackles from its feet.
As the music ends, Camilla also performs the last Ending Pose.
"Come on Camila!"
"Kamila! fighting!"
"..."
The audience in the stands could no longer contain their excitement and began to release their greatest enthusiasm to cheer for Camila to show their support!
Most of the audience is still very supportive of Camilla. In figure skating, a project that requires artistic expression, taking doping will not achieve the purpose of improving performance at all. To some extent, it will have the opposite effect...
Standing in the middle of the ice rink, Camilla didn't expect that she would get so much applause! After saying goodbye to the podium, she turned around to say goodbye to the ice fans who supported her.
The moment she turned around, tears burst into her eyes!
I saw that the stands opposite were densely packed with light signs! Each light sign has the words "K Treasure No. 1", the letter "o" in the middle is replaced by a small pink heart, and purple balloons flash on both sides of the light sign.
The most conspicuous among them are Li Guodong and Wang Rui in the front row. They expressed their support for Camilla with practical actions!
Camilla, who had just finished her performance, originally thought that her brother would arrange for someone to throw dolls down like he did in the team competition... she never thought that he would support her in this way. I didn’t even expect to see my brother’s parents here.
The violent emotional ups and downs made her a little unsteady.
She covered her mouth with one hand, half-hunched over and slid over, bowing continuously to the stands to express her gratitude.
BJ! First body!
The huge contrast between off-court and on-court makes Camilla feel the warmth of home!
She likes BJ and even more likes Chinese ice fans!
…
Faced with Camilla's almost perfect performance, some of the players who have not yet appeared are worried, some are desperate, and some are calm...
After the performance of the Korean players, Shasha, who wanted to win her first gold medal after being promoted to the group, appeared for the 27th time.
There was obviously something wrong with her mentality. 3A, who never went wrong in her pre-game warm-ups, had a brilliant fall at the beginning!
Although she made no mistakes in the next few jumps, her movements were obviously abnormal due to too much pressure. The post-match score also confirmed that her few jump bonus points were very few.
In the end, he only scored 74.60 points, ranking fourth among all players.
Anna, who played second to last, did not increase the difficulty because of Camila's performance, nor was she worried because of Sasha's fall on the ice.
Qian Jin, who has always been unlucky but always manages to fight back at critical moments, once again demonstrated his stability.
After the whole set of moves, he made no mistakes and finally got the second highest score of 80.20 points in the competition. He was also the only player besides Camila to score more than 80 points in the short program.
The last one to appear was Japanese player Kaori Sakamoto. Camilla's performance made her despair. Her strong aura and perfect performance made her dare not have any extravagant aspirations for the podium.
But Shasha's ice fall gave her hope. In the end, she relied on her hard power to get the third highest score of 79.84 points, retaining the possibility of reaching the podium.
In Bingdundun's world, Camilla was deducted 2.74 points due to a mistake in the opening 3A, and "only" scored 82.16 points.
In this world, Camila, who completed 3A perfectly, failed to break her own high score of 90.18 points in the team competition, and only got the highest score of 87.04.
Camilla once again proved her excellence with practical actions!
