Hanyu scored 167.88 points in the free skating event to build on yesterday's performance and finish with a total of 278.42, enough to give him the gold medal at the Rostelecom Cup event.

This was despite the Japanese skater injuring his ankle in practice earlier in the day and having to change his planned routine.

Morisi Kvitelashvili of Georgia came second with a total of 248.58 points, winning his country's first ISU Grand Prix medal. 

Hanyu's compatriot Kazuki Tomono recorded 238.73 points to take the bronze medal. 

The winners of the pairs event, Russia's Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov, also overcame an injury in rehearsal to eventually get home gold. 

Tarasova had fallen and cut her chin earlier in the day, requiring a hospital visit and stitches.

The duo still competed, however, to take their total to 220.25 points.

Italy's Nicole Della Monica and Matteo Guarise came in second with 203.83 points while World junior champions Daria Pavliuchenko and Denis Khodykin of Russia finished in third on 190.01 points.
