I am curious how many Russian junior ladies will be allowed to move into seniors next season. Tsurskaya is very likely going to move up, but will Zagitova, Lozko and Konstantinova be allowed to move up? (And will they want to?) A year ago they allowed it only to Medvedeva and made Sotskova and Sakhanovich stay junior for another season.
I thought the same. But I am very interested. Because like not many girls in Russia, Panenkova's puberty already started in 13yo. (She's still 13yo, her BD 8th december) It's very rarely for girl. But she does well. I would say very well. Russian National Juniors will be very interesting. And future is very bright for her at this point.Am surprised that Panenkova didn't get any junior B assignments -- surely they want to consider her for JGP next year? The girls who were skipped over for JGP last year but improved enough to be international contenders (Konstantinova, Lozko and Samodurova) all got international junior B's last year as a prelude to this year's JGP.
