Summary

Three—time Olympic champion Irina Rodnina is the most famous figure skater in the world. Although she won her gold medals in pair skating, they often talk about her, not about her partners. Paired with Alexey Ulanov, and then with Alexander Zaitsev, she was the undisputed leader despite her small stature. In her life, this word — "contrary" — is more common than others, because by nature she is a fighter, she did not get anything just like that, she had to conquer everything.
