Great news! Men's competition is never the same for me without Evan. I'm so glad he's considering to come back!
At this point, Evan refuses to take any interview or make any comment about his plan.
His publist told media that Evan has just resumed training with Frank Carroll at Lake Arrowhead, CA. And he wants to make no formal announcement of his intensions until later this summer. So we'll have to wait and see, but it's a wonderful start!
Universal Sports said: Lysacek is known for his consistency and will likely compete only if he is ready to win.
IF he decides to attend GP, he'll face some tough competitions. His main competitors include:
Lysacek would take on the best of the "next generation" at Skate America - reigning world silver medalist Takahiko Kozuka (JPN), Michal Brezina (CZE), and Florent Amodio (FRA) - not to mention teammate Richard Dornbush, the highest U.S. men's finisher at 2011 Worlds (ninth).
The Grand Prix of France men's field may be the most exciting of the series. Should Evan Lysacek's return to the Grand Prix be realized, he would face reigning world champion Patrick Chan in Paris. Will Lysacek come back with a quad (or two) and challenge Chan? Add Brian Joubert and Nobunari Oda to the mix, another quad man in Michal Brezina, and the stylish Florent Amodio (FRA) and Adam Rippon (USA) and we've got ourselves a world-class competition.
His agent at IMG said in twitter:
I am sure that @EvanLysacek will handle his return to competitive skating with his usual grace, dignity & determination.
Go Evan!!! The sky is the limit and the best is still yet to come!
P.S. Sorry about the English post, don't have Chinese package yet on my new computer. |
