Alina URUSHADZE (GEO) | Women Free Skating | ISU World Team Trophy | Tokyo 2025

On the ice, representing Georgia, Alina Urshadze. So to get us underway in the women's freeskate, the final event at the ISU World Team Trophy for 2025 is Alina Urshadze for Team Georgia. Really solid start, beautiful triple toe-double toe. Yeah, really nice triple toe. Wasn't that an absolute joy? It makes your heart glow, doesn't it? Look at what it meant. Alina Urshadze from Georgia. Remember the end of last season, she decided to retire and then got the nod that Georgia had made the team event and only five months ago got her skates back on and started training again for this event. And to go out there and skate like that, skate from the heart, a real joy. Fantastic start. Yes, of course, we're going to see technically more demanding programs, but we're probably not going to see many more enjoyable programs than that. Just a couple of triples in there. Here she is with a double axel. Everything nice and clean. But there was a real joy about it, wasn't there? Good choice of music. Can't beat a bit of ABBA, can you? You really sense she was having a blast out there. Yeah, a lovely, lovely way to start this women's freeskate. So not really about the points. They're not going to be huge, but it's all about the enjoyment and the participation for Georgia. Georgia participating in the World Team Trophy for the first time since 19.19. That's a great score. Really, really good. Look at that component score, 49.29. Really, really good. Well done.
