I feel like this is hypocritical.  Young retirement is common in skating.  Oksana, Tara and Sarah all left in their teens.  The fact is that few Olympic champions stay around. The motivation after the big O just isn't there. Really, the only hook of the story is the "lack of variety in their nationality", the fact that all these girls are Russian and come from the same coach.  It would be better if they analyzed the last two Olympic pools and came up with the average age of a woman skater competing at the Olympics. Or worlds.  Then you'll see if the world is getting younger, if skaters are retiring sooner, or if it's just Eteri.[/quote]

Ok but it's pretty well known that Eteri's skaters come with an expiration date- most of her skaters are retiring seem to be retiring due to injury or[b] inability to keep up with the younger skaters.[/b]  Until yesterday only Zagitova had won an OGM. [/quote]

The bolded is the reason why the majority of skaters retire. It's not Eteri's problem.

I don't quite understand your Zagitova comment.  [/quote]

Wasn't Adelina Sotnikova hers?[/quote]
