Hey Athletic Fans,

An Olympian won the women’s title at the Grand Prix Cup of China even as sections of the crowd booed her and chanted insults at the medal ceremony. The 21-year-old returned from an ankle injury to edge the title by just three points and fellow skaters have since criticised how she was treated.

Elsewhere, Jude Bellingham is at the centre of a reported tunnel altercation with security staff at Valencia.

All that and more in tonight’s edition of Essentially Athletics.

⚡Why this matters: The skater is a Four Continents champion and a World Championships medallist.
