The 2019 European Figure Skating Championships kicked off with the Ladies' Short Program on Thursday in Minsk, Belarus. Russia's Alina Zagitova currently leads the pack, followed by fellow countrywoman Sofia Samodurova and Switzerland's Alexia Paganini.
“If something doesn’t go so well, I’ll start the new year fresh,” said the 2018-19 Grand Prix (GP) Final silver medalist. “That’s what I did. I only take the good things with me. After Russian nationals, my parents took away my phone and gave me another one, without internet, so I’m now reading books and I’m studying for school. Studying is important [as] I won’t do figure skating for my whole life.”
