Piper and Andi discuss Alexandra Ignatova's return after giving birth to son

But let's talk about the Russian skater who is back, and that is Ignatova. Nearly four years, she's done a lot in those four years on a personal level. What really are the expectations here? I think she herself has her own high expectations. She's done really well at some of the Senior B events that she went to earlier on to get herself to this event. I think she's hungry. She didn't win that gold medal in Beijing, so she wants to be back on top. Those quads have not disappeared, even though her triple axel hasn't come back with some woman body changes. But that's not stopping her. And I think it's exciting to see her kind of be like, hey, I can be a mom and a top skater. Yeah, 2022 Olympics, she picked up the silver. 2021 Worlds, she was the bronze medalist. As we take a look at her short program here, what in particular stood out to you? For me, it's the transitions, the going in and out of the jumps. In the past, she's been just like, let's just focus on the jumps, get the technical side, which she's strong at. But I think now she sees that she has to be a whole package. And I love her, just the soft moments. And I can't wait to see what else she brings in the long program. Still wearing the gloves. I always remember that, right? The gloves. I don't know if it's a superstitious thing or I don't know. Maybe, maybe it just keeps her warm. Whatever it is, though, it's working. She's sitting in third.
