If she (his mother) had not been there, I would not have been able to wake up in the morning, go to practice and study well. To wake me up at 4 o’clock, my mother has to wake up at 3.30 in the morning. And then I am also very grateful to my skating coach. He keeps me motivated. ‘Actually, I was out of skating for two years, but they convinced me to get back into it and now this is the sport that’s taking me everywhere.’
