But heavy in Olympic sports following the tragic death of figure skater Yekaterina Alexandrovsky 20-year-old. According to reports tonight (Saturday) in Moscow, Alexandrovsky (20), who represented Australia at the last Winter Olympics and earlier in her short career, even won the World Junior Championships for couples, was found lifeless on a street near her home.

According to reports in Russia, Alexandrovsky stumbled from the window of her home directly onto the sidewalk, but police estimate that it was a suicide, and in fact the figure skater jumped to her death from the window of her home.

It should be noted that Alexandrovsky retired from activity as early as February 2020 due to a series of injuries from which she was unable to recover. Although she was born in Russia, about four years ago she moved to Australia and at the 2018 Winter Olympics in South Korea represented the Australians with her partner in the doubles competition, Harley Windsor.

"This is news that you can't prepare for in life. Words can't describe how I felt after the bitter news," Windsor said. "I'm sick, broken and hurt to the depths of my soul shaping Katya's death. "Be in my heart. Rest in peace, Katya."

Words can not describe how I feel right now, I am devastated and sick to my core about the sad and sudden passing of Katia. The amount we had achieved during our partnership is something I can never forget and will always hold close to my heart. This news is something you can never prepare for. Rest In Peace Katia.
