The illustrious Russian skater Evgenia Medvedeva, previously brilliantly performing in female single skating, recently celebrated her birthday. It is noteworthy that Medvedeva never considered herself a talented athlete, but nevertheless managed to win countless gold medals of international and Russian tournaments, and after the end of her career to remain at the peak of popularity and shine at the ice arenas.

We tell you what path Medvedeva made to become the queen of ice. Evgenia Medvedev Evgenia Medvedev: childhood, parents Russian skater Evgenia Medvedev was born and raised in Moscow on November 19. The girl stood on skates of three and a half years and still brilliantly performs on world arenas. This sport for Zhenya was chosen by her mother - a former skater, champion of Moscow, Jeanne Devyatova.

The star parent completed her career at the age of 15 due to an injury and dreamed that her heiress became successful in this sport. And so it happened. Zhenya Medvedeva stood on skates of three and a half years with her father Zhenna, Jeanne met at Soyuzmultfilm studio, when she worked as an assistant director, and Zhenya’s father, a native of Yerevan Arman Babasyan, was then an assistant to the artist.

A few years later, the couple divorced, but still maintain relations. The champion tall 1.58 m and a competitive weight of 45 kg still lives in the capital of Russia. Medvedeva Armenian, but many are hiding his nationality that many are sure that the real name of Zhenya is Medvedev. However, this is not so. The girl’s birth certificate indicates the surname of the father - the Armenian businessman and artist Arman Babasyan.

Father Evgenia Medvedeva Arman Babasyan. Before the start of a sports career, Zhenya bore this particular name.

When the baby was 8 years old, she came to Eteri Tutberidze already being Medvedeva. Moreover, this surname is not her mother. Medvedeva is the grandmother of the ice star star. It is noteworthy that in the year Eugene denied its Armenian roots and tried to mislead the media. The girl in an emotional tone convincingly entered the same information: “My surname is Medvedeva. Where did you hear that I had some surname Babasyan?

I am only Medvedev, my nationality is Russian, I come from Moscow - everything. My middle name is very beautiful - Armanovna. Arman is a French name. So I have French patronymic. ” Two years after the Winter Olympiad, Zhenya nevertheless admitted in her nationality: “I have a father of Armenian, but I am not so familiar with Armenian culture. I did not have to ride under Armenian music, Armenian cuisine is not entirely to my taste.

I am more Russian people. " Despite this attitude of the champion, the Armenians from all over the world warmly speak about their wife. And in the news, the media use the name Babasyan each time or as its main one, or indicating in brackets. Evgenia Medvedev during the performance of the sports career of Medvedeva, the future champion began her journey from the school of figure skating at the “Young Pioneers” stadium, then moved to CSKA to the Lyubov Yakovleva group, and then she was engaged in Elena Selivanova’s mentor.

In the year, when his wife was 8 years old, her mother transferred her to the famous Sambo school to the Khrustalny rink to the group to Eteri Tutberidze. Four years later, a summer talented girl has already become part of the Russian national team. Medvedeva's debut took place at the stage of the Grand Prix series among juniors in Latvia. Then the summer athlete easily pulled out the first step of the pedestal, at the next tournament in Poland again won gold.

But in Japan she was only the third, losing to her compatriots. The next season, Medvedeva was difficult, but rich in victory. The athlete won at both stages of the junior Grand Prix, in Curules and in Ostrava. In the final of the junior Grand Prix in Barcelona brilliantly showing both programs, took first place. At the Russian Championship of the year, she replenished her piggy bank with the first national medal of Bronze, the Russian tournament among juniors completed with the first place.

In early March, in Talin, she won a gold medal in a difficult struggle. Evgenia Medvedev after the victory at the Russian Championship Medvedev - among adults, a tiny broken was famous for her stable results. It seemed to her easily conquered any ice arena.She began to work in adult skating at the Ondrey Memorial Nevyla and won the competition. Since then, her piggy bank has been replenished exclusively with victorious medals - among which there were mainly awards of the highest dignity.

Sometimes silver slipped and very rarely - bronze. Medvedeva became the first skater on the planet to score more points in an arbitrary program, more than 80 - in short and more - in total according to the previous assessment system. During her career, I updated world records of short and arbitrary programs and three times - in the sum of points. Vladimir Putin awards Evgenia Medvedev a lack of talent, the ice star assures that she never considered herself a capable athlete.

The realization that she was a “good” skater came to my most important talent in the fact that my bones grow up quickly. I did not have a natural jump, feelings of a pose, fearlessness-my most important talent was hard work, ”Medvedeva said on the Fametime TV YouTube channel. Dmitry Medvedev and Evgenia Medvedev. The awarding of the winners of the Olympiad Yevgeny Medvedev: Achievements, titles and rewards of Eugene became a master of sports of Russia in 13 years - February 21.

Two years later, on August 3, she became a master of sports of Russia of an international class. After the Olympics, she received the Order of Friendship for high sports achievements. Medvedeva is a two-time silver medalist of the Olympic Games of the year in solitary skating and team competitions, a two-time world champion, Europe and Russia and a two-time winner of the Grand Prix finals.

Evgenia Medvedeva and Alina Zagitova. It so happened that both skaters went to the Olympics in Pyeongchang. The competition “was supposed to defeat the competition at that time, the summer Zhenya - Canadian functionaries were sure of this. In order to bring their compatriot to the leaders, they tried to “destroy” Medvedev through the world media. As a result, they crushed Medvedev so that she lost to her fellow team, and Canadian Kaitlin Osmond was still behind, ”admitted judge Alexander Vedenin.

Vladimir Putin with the prize -winners of the Olympics - Zagitova and Medvedeva despite this, Medvedeva spoke brilliantly at the games - at first she broke her world record, then immediately set a new one. But at a decisive moment, the owner of the impeccable equipment Alina Zagitova entered the struggle for gold. If the girls occupied the same number of points in the arbitrary program - 65, then in a short Zagitova ahead of Medvedev by only 1.31 points.

I broke the record that Medvedev had just set and confidently climbed the first step of the pedestal. Medvedeva remained with silver, and the army of fans of figure skating split into two camps. Medvedev, like all sports lovers, were shocked. Zhenya herself, with tears in her eyes, reproached Tutberidze for not being able to keep Zagitova in juniors for another year. Zagitova, Tutberidze and Medvedev at the Olympics of sworn rivals after that began to convict in "hatred for each other." The girls did that they left messages on Instagram with a hint.

Athletes are still sharing visitedly, although it has passed since the main competitions of the planet for almost four years. The scandal with the "non -burial" speech involuntarily in the summer of the year Zhenya became a participant in the next conflict with Zagitova. The star duet was supposed to conduct the anniversary of the Sambo school in the Kremlin, but suddenly everything changed.

The school principal refused the venture. He compared the diction of Medvedeva and Zagitova and humiliatingly stated that one of them had a “non -burden” speech. This provoked many proceedings and caustic comments on the girls. A few months after the scandalous games, Medvedeva decided to leave Eteri Tutberidze to escape from Tutberidze in Canada in May, a few months after scandalous games, it became known that Medvedeva decided to leave Eteri Tutberidze, who had trained for 11 years.

It is noteworthy that the girl was replaced by the Canadian specialist Brian Orser, who constantly criticized and negatively spoke about the coaching competencies of Tutberidze. Soon Zhenya moved to Toronto, but remained listed in the Russian team. The national media claimed that the girl was transferred fabulous money for each training session. But the athlete refuted this information and assured that classes cost her, like other pupils - dollars per hour.

I would really like, I would have simplified my life very much. I just sat and thought: where are my 6 million a month, huh? Can you please? The humiliating return of the world of figure skating rejoiced when two years later the champion nevertheless returned to Eteri. The reason is simple: if in the first season it was still possible to present a bright future for a Russian woman with a Canadian, then with each performance it became worse and worse - constant falls, no development in terms of technology, broken skates in competitions.

As a result, quarantine in connection with coronavirus infection and distance training played a decisive role.
