Olympic champion Alexei Yagudin reacted to the words of producer Yana Rudkovskaya, who called her husband Yevgeny Plushenko the most titled representative of male single skating in history. The athlete spoke out on Instagram.
Yagudin laughed at the fact that Rudkovskaya refers to Wikipedia. In response, the skater recalled the recommendation of Russian President Vladimir Putin to the citizens of the country not to rely on this resource as a source of reliable information. “I completely agree with the president,” Yagudin wrote, adding emoticons to the post.
Rudkovskaya compared Plushenko to Yagudin on December 6 in an interview with Sport-Express. The producer stated that her husband has a significant superiority in the number of Olympic medals.
Yagudin, in addition to winning the Olympics, won the world championship four times. Plushenko took one personal and one team gold of the Games and twice became the silver medalist of the Olympic Games. Plushenko won three times at the world championships.
