At least some athletes enjoying themselves in #Beijing2022

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

For #KamilaValieva, even if she had won the gold medal; her success would always be overshadowed by the #Doping scandal.

On the other hand, remembering 13-year-old #AlexandraTrusova ‘s interview with Olympic Channel just breaks my heart💔:

“I want to be the Olympic Champion!”

does the girl with the "isu needs reform" banner know what a legend she is? I hope she knows. what a queen. forever an icon.

We all need an #EvgeniaMedvedeva

Zhenya taking Kami home so she wouldn't be alone embodies the "be the person you needed when you were younger" mentality

[Tom Schad @Tom_Schad]

IOC president Thomas Bach says it will be critical to investigate Kamila Valieva's entourage -- because she is a minor and because, in his experience, "doping very rarely happens alone, by the athletes."

"You always have an entourage," he says.

“Distraught”

Meaning: Promised an Olympic Gold Medal in return to jumping ALL the quad jumps by her coaches for the last 4 years and exposed a high level of harassment by the media who were trying to turn her “very private moment” into a magazine headline.

'I hate this sport,' says distraught Russian skater Alexandra Trusova after silver medal https://t.co/Q5rkDZVxTQ #Beijing2022

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

A friendly reminder that #Olympics is just an event.
It’s not a platform to harass 15-17 year old “kids” and turn the feeling of Olympic unity into a traumatic medal hunt.

I don’t even know what happened tonight
#Beijing2022

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

I still cannot get over the fact that #AlexandraTrusova landed 5 quads and still came second place.

She watched her last 3 years of effort & nerves went into trash in her probable last Olympics of #Beijing2022 .

The ones who criticize her screams; ✨WELL, SHE GOT A POINT.✨

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

#Beijing2022, as speaking for myself; I could not be more devastated by the final results of Women Single Skate. All the Russian girls are traumatized for life except #AnnaScherbakova, who is now “feeling empty inside”

This games broke something inside for everyone for sure…

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

Imagine being at the top of the world, but still being overshadowed by every single Russian drama - from doping to press bullying💔

[kit @baddieschizas]

no one would say she just won the olympics

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

The ones that call #KamilaValieva a cheater, she is only 15! Do you think that she just woke up one morning and suddenly decided to use “trimetazidine”.
Why everyone forgets the “well-aware” coaching team who should be kept responsible for this over-achieved girl’s free fall!

[Mavis Black @MavisBBlack]

Btw, all congratulations to crowned Olympic Champion #AnnaScherbakova; who ghosted by the whole media over the course of her career but kept working like hell. Turns out that dignity and hard work really do pay off.
