Shin ranked No. 1 in the women’s single at the 78th all-around championships held at the indoor skating rink in Uijeongbu on Sunday. “I made a mistake in the short, and it was my last turn, and I’m glad I finished well without getting nervous,” Shin said. “I think it’s an amazing score, too,” Shin said, breaking her personal record (total score of 218.36 points) in the domestic competition.
Shin is the leading figure skater in Korea. She is the first Korean female figure skater to win a medal (second place) in 16 years since Kim Yu-na in the 2022 Junior World Championship, and has topped the presidential boat and the all-around championships for two consecutive years in Korea. She also won a silver medal at the Junior World Championship last year. She also won three gold medals at the Junior Grand Prix. 카지노사이트 순위
There is a competition where Shin Ji-ah, who showed everything on the junior stage, will compete. It is the 2024 Gangwon Winter Youth Olympics that will open on the 19th. It is hosted by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and only athletes aged 14 to 18 will participate. Since it is held only once every four years like the Olympics, you can only participate once.
The Gangwon Olympics will utilize the stadiums where the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympics took place. The same applies to the Gangneung Ice Arena, where figure skating takes place. Shin watched the PyeongChang Olympics in person when she was 10 years old. And now, six years later, she will compete there.
Shin Ji-ah said, “I watched the men’s single short program for figure skating at the PyeongChang Olympics with my parents. It is an honor to be able to stand in that arena.” “Honestly, I don’t remember vividly because I was so young, but I felt all the athletes were amazing. I remember being touched when I saw them do their best on stage.”
Shin is most likely to win a medal at the Youth Olympics. The strongest competitor is Mao Shimada of Japan, who won a gold medal at the Junior World Championships last year. Shimada, who can even perform a four-round jump, is considered Japan’s future. As of now, Shimada is one step ahead, but Shin has a good chance of winning the title. “I will try to do better at the Youth Olympics,” Shin said.
Shin is calm and makes fewer mistakes than her age. All the components, including jumps, spins, and steps, are stable. There is no special routine, and all I do is think about the choreography while listening to music, but I remain calm. “It’s not that I don’t feel nervous at all. I was nervous again today, but I don’t think I can see anything when I act,” Shin said.
Shin is yet to participate in the senior international competition due to age limitations. She will play in the adult competition starting from the 2024-25 season. The 2025 World Championship and the 2026 Milan-Cortina d’Ampezzo Olympics will be waiting.
Short track speed skaters Shim Suk-hee and Hwang Dae-heon also won gold medals at the Olympics after winning gold medals at the Youth Olympics. “My goal is to always have satisfactory performances. I will focus more on training,” Shin said. “I will do well at the Youth Olympics to gain strength to perform well at the Winter Olympics.”
