Tessa Virtue

The honor of carrying the flag of the country falls to the best. For Canada, skaters Tessa Vertyu and Scott Moir were such. In ice dancing, the athletes won the Olympic gold medal in Vancouver and two silver medals at the Winter Olympics in Sochi.

Multiple champions and medalists of national, European and world tournaments returned to the ice after a year-long timeout and again proved star status: at the Olympics in Pyeongchang, the pair won the country's second gold medal in team competitions, justifying the trust of millions of fans.

The future dancer on ice was born in May 1989 in London, Canada. Tessa is the youngest child in the Vertia family. At the time of her birth, two brothers and a sister were growing up. His parents, Jim and Kate, had nothing to do with the sport. But the girl's brothers became her first coaches: passionate about hockey, they heeded the requests of the younger sister and "put" her on skates.

The first motivation of Tessa Vertya to learn to skate on the ice was the desire to keep up with the peers who bravely cut the ice rink. The dream of becoming a champion came later, when the fascination with dancing on ice grew into a matter of life.

The sports biography of the new Canadian took shape when 7-year-old Tessa Vertyu met on the ice with the eldest boy for 2 years, named Scott Moir. According to the couple, the "chemistry" between them did not arise immediately: at first the guys were shy to hold hands, communicate little and were shackled. But the pair seemed cute and funny to the coaches, it was created, guided by the same growth of children.

Mutual understanding and friendship in the relationship of Tessa and Scott appeared after 10 years. Later they will be called the most stable pair in world figure skating.

Tessa Vertew studied flexibility and skill at the rink: she studied ballet and modern choreography at Errington Graham School. After watching, the 9-year-old Canadian was admitted to a ballet school in Toronto.

In 2003, when Tessa Vertia was 13 years old, she moved to America. In Canton, training sessions were held and mentors Marina sueva and Igor Shpilband lived.

After graduating from high school, the figure skater passed her exams at the University of Windsor, where she chose the Faculty of Psychology. The girl was awarded her degree at the University of Ontario.

Starting as a couple in 1997, Tessa and Scott won their first awards in the early 2000s. In 2001-2002 they won bronze medals at the national championship (children's level), and in 2003 Vertyu and Moir took the 7th stage of the national championship, but among juniors.

In the 2003/04 season, the young Canadians became debutants in the Junior Grand Prix. The performance in Croatia brought the 4th place, and in Slovakia the dancers took only the 6th step. At the national championships Tessa Vertyu and her partner won the first gold in their sports career, and got to the junior world championship. At the world level, they got the 11th position.

The next season for dancers was marked by the transition to adult category and performances in the new status at the national and international championships. In the Grand Prix stage in the Celestial Empire, Verthia and Moir were in the lead, and in France they won a silver medal. Victories opened the doors for the athletes to make their debut at the national championship at the adult level in 2005.

In 2006, the Canadians made a splash at the Grand Prix, winning the first prizes of the award in two stages and in the final of the games.

At the home championship, the pair won bronze and topped the list of Canada's reserve team for the Olympic Games. In the same 2006, Tessa Vertyu and her team-mate competed in the continental competition, where they finished 3rd. But at the Junior World Cup Canadians won gold and became the first of compatriots with the championship title.

In the 2006/07 season, Tessa Vertyu and her permanent partner made their debut at international games in the adult category. In November 2007, at the 2nd stage of the Grand Prix in quebec, Vertyu and Moir won silver at the Pepsi Coliseum, but at the Bercy Sports Complex in Paris, Canadian skaters managed to take only 4th rung.

At the first adult World Cup in Tokyo, where the mandatory dance was "Rumba", the Canadians came out on the 6th step.

The following season, the pair earned the right to represent the country at continental games in South Korea. Here Tessa Vertia and his partner were waiting for the triumph and the main award. The pair stayed on Olympus and in Sweden. In Gothenburg, the dancers showed high skill and artistry in an arbitrary program. The video with the number Vertyu and Moira to the music from the movie "Sherbur Umbrellas" was watched by hundreds of thousands of fans, who were unlucky to watch the performance of the favorites live.

The 2008/09 season proved to be unfortunate for the couple. Vertia's injury and subsequent surgery prevented him from participating in the two stages of the Grand Prix, but after rehabilitation skaters for the 2nd time became winners of the national championship.

In the next sports season, Tessa and Scott collected the highest awards. In Paris, the Canadians took the lead at the 1st stage of the Grand Prix, leaving behind strong rivals Natalie Peshal and Fabian Burza. And in November 2009, at the final, 6th stage of the Grand Prix, Vertyu and Moir confirmed their "golden" status: at the Ontario Arena, the partners won the main prize.

In 2010, the Canadians won the third national title, but the top prize - Olympic gold - overshadowed all previous victories of Tessa Vertia and her partner. In Vancouver, skaters shone, receiving four top points for an arbitrary performance. The first Olympics of the pair was crowned with triumph. For debutants it is the peak of dreams and the highest reward.

The Olympics were followed by the World Championships in Turin, where the athletes broke their own record and won gold at the Palavela Arena.

A brilliant Victoria was followed by a painful fall: Tessa Vertia was diagnosed with interphascial space syndrome, in which her arms and legs were swollen. The problem arose because of the titanic loads that the skater experienced last season. Complex surgery on the legs led to a forced pause, but at the World Cup in Russia the pair arrived and won silver.

Tessa Vertyu returned to the sport two years after the games in Sochi, where they brought home two silver medals.

In 2016, the Canadians had a great start to the pre-Olympic season, winning gold in Montreal. They won the main prize at the Fed Cup. In Sapporo, at the final stage of the cup, the dancers again led. The final in Marseille was a triumph.

The start of the pre-Olympic season for Tessa Vertia and partner began in January 2017 in Ottawa. Here, and in February and in South Korea, the dancers won gold. In Finland, at the World Cup, again the main award.

The Olympic season of skaters began on the native arena and continued in Osaka. Everywhere they won gold medals and the right to represent the country in Pyeongchang.

The Canadian star is single. The girl continues training in Canton, but the main residence remains London.

A long collaboration with Scott Moir prompted the couple's fans to believe that skaters are not just on the ice stage. Oils in the fire added photos of athletes in wedding dresses. But Tessa and Scott - long-time and kind friends and they did not have a wedding.

Partners in ice dancing in collaboration with Stevie Milton wrote an autobiographical book and became the heroes of the documentary. Each of them speaks with incredible warmth and claim that over the years the understanding grows stronger. Together skaters 20 years.

In Tessa Vertyu's Instagram, followers see dozens of joint photos with the athlete's constant partner and touching baby pictures.

At the opening ceremony of the Pyeongchang Games, Canadian skaters were honored to carry the national flag. Responsible and honorable mission imposed on a couple of obligations, which they soon justified.

On February 12, the Maple Leaf country duo performed brilliantly to the music of the melodrama "Moulin Rouge" and left behind the strongest rivals from the United States and Russia.

Arbitrary dance in the last moments had to be slightly corrected, removing the ambiguous and piquant element. After criticism of the non-aestheticity, Verthi and Moir agreed to change the dance figure.

Taking as the basis of the number classic cabaret of Paris, Tess and Scott convinced the correct choice of coaches Patrice Lozon and Marie-France Dubrey. The results confirmed the rightness, and the creative flair is now twice Olympic champions.
