Evan Lysacek Adopts His Own Way To Stay Close To Evgeny Plushenko
Current world champion Evan Lysacek once again adopted his own style of spins but no quads in quite strong little program. The trademark Evan spins and styles brought him closer to defending Olympic champ Plushenko, at no. 2.
When he completed his little program Tuesday night, Evgeny Plushenko from Russia twice imitated plying a sword and placing it back in the scabbard, as if he was a voyager who had stamped up the antagonism.
And with it the reigning Olympic champion, scored points that definitely will be hard for anyone to top. Russia’s Plushenko was first of the contestants to skate and retained his first number by putting up a mammoth score.
But the reigning world champion Evan Lysacek almost reached there, with his exhilarating performance with expressions of ecstasy.
Plushenko with his quad-triple jump mishmash and carrying out everything else with outdoing ease, racked up 90.85 points, which also is second highest ever after his very own world record of 91.30 points at last month’s European championships.
Evan Lysacek scored 90.30, and was hardly at the forefront of Japan’s Daisuke Takahashi who scored 90.25.
