Tina Graudina: "2019 is a year that I will remember for the rest of my life! It was a total roller coaster, as I started the year not even being together with my partner Anastasija, we were split up in January, so the whole season seemed very bleak as I was trying to find a partner. But we resolved all our issues, we got back together and that is why all the success that we had at the end of the season was completely out of my imagination. It was a dream come true type of season."
