Though it's not like Medvedeva was that perfect. She lacked speed and ground cover in some of the jumps, and also artistry (but not as much as Zagitova ofc).

 

Dick Button with some interesting inside tweets btw.

I'm genuinely surprised an 88-year old double gold medalist is live tweeting this.

Also he seems to tweet move by move, how can he watch and tweet all that at the same time??

Most tech-savy 80 year old for sure, I wouldn't be able to type that fast.

Zagitova made me feel admiration, but little more. Medvedeva made me feel like I was part of her world. It was beautiful. Really think it should’ve gone the other way.

Zagitova and Chen will rule the figure skating world due to their technical skills and athleticism. 

 

Medvedeva's artistry is not appreciated enough, she was better just better than Zagitova today. Scoring system is killing the artsy side of this sport.
