It was not the ending that ROC figure skater Kamila Valieva had in mind. Not at all.

After finishing in first in the short program, Valieva stumbled or fell at least four times in the free skate, receiving a score of 141.93 and giving her a total of 224.09, which was only good for fourth.

The teenager was left in tears after her performance as she was comforted by her coaches.

ROC's Anna Shcherbakova and Alexandra Trusova won gold and silver, respectively, while Japan's Kaori Sakamoto earned the bronze.
