Alexander "Sasha" Abt (born October 22, 1976 in Moscow, Russia) is a Russian figure skater and coach. He competed as an elite senior skater for about ten years. He placed fifth at the 2002 Winter Olympics.

Career


Abt's first experience with figure skating came at the age of six when his grandmother first took him to a figure skating rink. He first began training with Sergei Volkov; however, Volkov was suffering from cancer and sent Abt to be trained by Rafael Arutunian before he died. Soon after, Abt began to make a name for himself on the junior circuit, placing second at the 1991 Junior World Championships.

His early career was hindered by a series of injuries, the most serious of which took place in 1996, when, while training at a rink in Mexico, Abt crashed into the boards, causing his skate blade to cut into his leg and forcing Abt into the hospital for several weeks.
