  • He should've won the SP...

  • This is one of my all time favorite performances by Alexei Yagudin.

    I would guess a 90% of figure skating fans may pick the "Winter" performance from the 2002 SLC Olympics but I much prefer this pgm.

    If I am not mistaken he suffered a foot injury prior to the 2001 Worlds? and for him to put in his "guts & soul" into this circular & straight line footwork, a commitment to every edges,steps and the turns with so much emotions,wow!!!

    the all time Greats in the figure skating,no doubt!

  • It was legen, elit for it, dary!!!:-)

    Legendary, famous, nice, super, wonderfull...

  • And for that ride, he received the 3rd place!?

  • never seen anything that incredibly powerful, such emotions...I admire him not only as a skater but as a man too, and unbelievable how he manages to skate like God even when he's in such pain...a legend that will never be forgotten

  • Alexei Yagudin is the only skater who can skate to Chopin's Revolution Etude. It is amazing to see how he embodies this piece flawlessly.

  • HE IS ON FIRE!!!!!! Even injured he is amazing!

  • standing ovation for yagudin!

  • "it was all about heart and guts" :)

    He's amazing!

  • His qualifying mark dragged him down. It was a disaster - a totally destroyed foot with painkillers injected directly into the sole for all three stages of the competition.

    He pushed through this through sheer force of will. I saw it live and was totally floored. Anyone else would have dropped out!

    I still think of him as the greatest competitor ever. I don't think anyone has ever loved competition the way he does.

  • I will never understand how he placed a mere third place after that masterpiece of a program. Its possibly the best short program he has EVER given!!!
