The Ministry of Sport of the Russian Federation officially approved Alena Kostornaia’s coaching change to Evgeny Plushenko and Sergei Rozanov.
Previously, Kostornaia was listed as a student of Eteri Tutberidze, Sergei Dudakov, and Daniil Gleikhengauz; in the new document, the skater’s list of coaches still contains Tutberidze but now also includes Plushenko and Rozanov. As noted earlier, the 17-year-old figure skater will continue representing Sambo-70’s Khrustalny branch because the change occurred after the transfer window.
An update of Evgenia Medvedeva’s coaches was also approved – from Brian Orser and Tracy Wilson to Tutberidze, Dudakov, and Gleikhengauz.
