European Championships Results

The European Championships have concluded in Sheffield, UK. Despite needing surgery, Evgeny Plushenko was victorious once again, throwing a quad into his free skate and winning the competition with a personal-best score. He was miles ahead of silver medalist and fellow Russian Artur Gachinski. France's Florent Amodio won the bronze.

Italy's Carolina Kostner was even more dominant in the ladies competition, winning by almost 20 points. Finland's Kiira Korpi came in second and Elene Gedevanishvili of Georgia was the bronze medalist. I think Carolina Kostner is becoming the prohibitive favorite for world gold.

In pairs, Russia swept the podium, but Volosozhar and Trankov had little competition from silver medalists Bazarova and Larionov. Newish names Stolbova and Klimov were able to climb up for the bronze.

And finally, in ice dancing, France's Pechalat and Bourzat dominated the free skate to beat Bobrova and Soloviev for the gold. Russia's Ilinykh and Katsalapov just edged out Italy's Cappellini and Lanotte to win the bronze.
