Choice made: daughter of Tutberidze does not perform under the Russian flag

In the world of figure skating, another scandal has matured.

The whole sports world is excited by the news about the plans of the heiress Eteri Tutberidze.

The daughter of the famous coach Diana Davis followed in her mother’s footsteps. She and her partner Gleb Smolkin show good results – last season they won silver at the Russian Championship. The couple also performed at the Beijing Olympics, finishing in 14th line.

However, in Russia, the young figure skater does not want to develop. Together with Smolkin, she is accompanied by Igor Shpilband in America for a long time. The daughter of Eteri Tutberidze grew up in Russia, but was born in the United States, so she has dual citizenship.

It seems Diana Davis chose a “second home” after all. Recently it turned out that the girl wants to perform under the American flag. Tutberidze herself confirmed the news about the change of her daughter’s sports citizenship. She told about this in an interview with De Skaatsles.

Some sports fans were surprised by this news, but for others it was no surprise. Many people remember how in March Tutberidze removed a photo with the Russian flag from social networks.
