Russia’s Polina Tsurskaya, who made her international debut in August 2015 at the Junior Grand Prix (JGP) in Bratislava, Slovakia, won the title at the 2015-16 JGP Final in Barcelona, Spain, this past Saturday.
The 14-year-old won both the short and long program with more than 10 points overall (195.28) to spare in her first major ISU championship event. While the teen is not age-eligible for the European or World Figure Skating Championships, she is hoping she will make the Junior World team.
“I did everything clean, but I could have had a few more pluses on my elements,” critiqued Tsurskaya. “I felt very confident in my performance and it was the best of the season so far. Technically, I could compete with (the senior Ladies), but my second mark is not as good yet and my skating is still junior-ish.”
