Article and Photos by Paula Slater Nations Cup (Sparkassen Cup on Ice), the third of six events of the ongoing Grand Prix, was held at the Sports Paradis, November 8-12, 2000, in Gelsenkirchen, Germany. In my opinion, there were no upsets in the men's event. This isn't to say it wasn't exciting or that all was "cut and dry." However, as predicted, it was mostly a battle between two of the quad maniacs: Evgeny Plushenko (Russia) and Timothy Goebel (U.S.). China's Chengjiang Li, was third after the short program. With a ninth place finish at Skate Canada, he gained back a little leverage with his third place finish after his long program. He landed seven triples but didn't have a clean quad (hand down). Goebel, who defeated Russian quad monster Alexei Yagudin at Skate America, was in second after the short program. Skating to music of Henry V in his long program, he fell on a quad toe loop attempt but integrated a quad Salchow later in his routine. Although technically strong, Goebel's presentation marks (5.6s and 5.7s) are reflective of what needs improvement. "I'm disappointed because I made a few mistakes and didn't do as well as I did in skate America," Goebel said (

Sparkassen Cup on Ice - Third Event of the ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating
ISU Grand Prix of Figure Skating Main Page Official Site The Sparkassen Cup on Ice in Gelsenkirchen, Germany, is the third of six qualifying events of the Grand Prix of Figure Skating. The event features five World Champions: 1999 World Champion Maria Butyrskaya (RUS), reigning Pair World Champions Maria Petrova/Alexei Tikhonov (RUS), as well as current Junior World Champions Stefan Lindemann (GER), Ice Dance couple Natalia Romaniuta/Daniil Barantsev (RUS), and Pair team Aliona Savchenko/Stanislav Morozov (UKR). The competition takes place from Friday November 10 until Sunday November 12 (full list of entries attached). 1999 World Champion Maria Butyrskaya will present her new Free Program in competition, as she chose the Sparkassen Cup to be her first scoring event. Challenging Butyrskaya are Sarah Hughes (USA), who placed second at Skate America two weeks ago, and French Champion Vanessa Gusmeroli, who finished fourth at the Worlds last season. Gusmeroli is also competing in her first Grand Prix event this season and she is skating for points. Ukraine's Elena Liashenko is also aiming for a spot on the podium. Making her comeback on the international scene is 1999 Four Continents Champion, Tatiana Malinina from Uzbekistan, who was hampered by injuries last season. European Champion Evgeni Plushenko from Russia heads the Men's field in Germany, which will be his first Grand Prix competition of the season. The 18-year old hopes to defend his Sparkassen Cup title, but he faces competition from Timothy Goebel (USA), who beat World Champion Alexei Yagudin at Skate America. 1998 European Bronze Medallist Alexander Abt of Russia and French Champion Stanick Jeannette are also medal contenders. Four Continents Silver Medallist Chengjiang Li (China) is hoping to redeem himself after disappointing performances at Skate Canada. Plushenko will not be skating for points in Germany, whereas Goebel and Jeannette will be looking to score points.

Russian Skaters Ice the Competition By Mike Scollon
STAFF WRITER
Photo by Sergey Grachev
When a worldwide audience tunes in to watch competitors take the ice in the Grand Prix Final figure skating competition in St. Petersburg, they will witness a reflection of Russia that defies logic. After all, if the Russians leave their competition flailing - as they have in the six Grand Prix events leading up to this weekend's final at the city's Sport and Concert Complex - they will continue to flout Western conventional wisdom that has Russia's sports traditions declining with its economy. Instead, Russian figure skaters are enjoying successes that skaters from other countries would whack knees for. Ottavio Cinquanta, the president of the International Skating Union, or ISU, drove the point home at a press conference Thursday, describing a "new era" in figure skating competition. Russian skaters are so dominant, he said, that it poses problems to the rest of the countries in the ISU, which as its name suggests, is intended to be "international." Indeed, the hottest competition for the Russians this season has been the Russians themselves.

Russians Reign Supreme In Skating Worlds By Mike Scollon
STAFF WRITER
Photo by Thomas Kienzle / AP
HELSINKI, Finland - The cards were seemingly stacked against them, but in the end Russian figure skaters trumped all the world's aces when they took all four gold medals at the World Championships at Hartwall Arena. The Russians took three of four gold medals in last year's Minneapolis championships. This year's sweep came courtesy of Maria Butyrskaya, a late bloomer at 26, who turned the tables on the United States' two-time world champion Michelle Kwan to become the first Russian ladies world champion on Sunday. Kwan had won her 10 consecutive events going back to the Minneapolis event, while Butyrskaya had a history of wilting under the stress of high-pressure events. Yelena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze repeated as gold medalists in pairs on Wednesday, Alexei Yagudin repeated as world men's champion Thursday, and Anelika Krylova and Oleg Ovsyannikov repeated as world ice-dancing champions on Friday to set the stage for Butyrskaya. Yevgeny Plushenko, 16, won the men's silver and Julia Soldatova, 18, took bronze in the ladies' competition. "We planned to take two [gold] medals, but we didn't know what to expect from Michelle Kwan. But when we came here we saw that she wasn't in her best form and we knew there was a real [possibility] to win here because Maria was in good form," said Butyrskaya's coach, Elena Tchaikovskaya, after the event.
