WATCH LIVE | Selevko gave points away in the free skate, who will win the Olympic gold?

In a live broadcast of the men's figure skating free program at the Milano Cortina Olympics, Estonian skater Aleksandr Selevko faced challenges but fought through a strong start.

Today at 20:30, ETV+ and the ERR sports portal will broadcast a live event from the Milano Cortina Olympics featuring the men's singles free skate. Commentators Anu SÀÀrits and Liina-Grete Lilender, along with reporter Maarja VÀrv, will cover the performance of Estonian figure skater Aleksandr Selevko, who faced tough competition and technical challenges.

Selevko began his performance strongly with a quadruple toe loop and a triple toe loop cascade, impressing the audience and judges alike. However, the latter part of his routine did not meet the expected standards, with his spins failing to reach the maximum level, resulting in a score of 154.80 points. This number falls more than 12 points short of his personal record, reflecting the pressures and difficulties of competing on such a grand stage. In his previous Olympic appearances, he accumulated a total of 236.82 points across two routines, with his highest ever score being 257.21 points.

The men's singles free skate includes the top 24 figure skaters from around the world, and Selevko will be the first skater in the second group. This competition not only highlights individual athletic performances but also showcases the intense rivalry and unpredictability of the Olympic Games, raising questions about who will ultimately take home the gold medal. Additional information will be provided as the event unfolds.
