Kao Miura faced challenges in the men’s free skate at the Grand Prix France, with Miura dropping to 10th after a disappointing performance. Here’s a translation of his comments posted on Nikkansports.
Miura faced repeated falls on his jumps and admitted his emotional struggle, saying,”It’s not even just disappointment – it’s a feeling of sadness.”
Reflecting on his performance in an interview with both domestic and international media, Miura expressed his frustration, and he later posted on X (formerly Twitter) to share his thoughts with fans:
“Thank you for your support of my performance at the Grand Prix France, and I apologize for causing you concern.”
“To be honest, I still haven’t been able to process my emotions. I came into this competition feeling fully prepared, healthy, and free of injuries. I was even able to execute everything well in practice, but being unable to deliver during the actual event was incredibly frustrating. It feels like I’m stuck in a long, dark tunnel, but I hope I’ll eventually see the light, and I’ll keep running forward no matter what.”
“During today’s free skate, even after failing and stumbling multiple times, the audience in the arena kept cheering passionately for me, helping me push through to the very end. I could hear the supportive voices throughout my performance, and I’m truly grateful to all the spectators who were there. Thank you so much for your warm encouragement.”
“The season is far from over. This year has brought moments where my spirit has been broken, but I will continue to work tirelessly in the hopes that I’ll be able to deliver a truly exceptional performance for everyone again one day. Please keep supporting me as I move forward.”
