"  Ice wizard and Olympic prodigy Yulia Lipnitskaya has been  breaking records\u00A0left and right in Sochi. Despite all of her accomplishments, people are quick to try and find fault with her. Here are some of the harshest criticisms she&amp;#039;s received so far: 1. She&amp;#039;s immature. U.S. figure skating coach Frank Carroll  threw major shade\u00A0at Lipnitskaya, calling her &amp;quot;a little girl&amp;quot; who is over her head in a ladies competition. 2. Her moves aren&amp;#039;t perfect.  The New York Times\u00A0writes &amp;quot;There is also some debate about whether Lipnitskaya receives overly generous artistic marks for skating skills, transitions, performance, choreography and musical interpretation.&amp;quot;\u00A0 3. She&amp;#039;s disappointing. Apparently, because she\u00A0fell in her short program, she\u00A0&amp;quot;failed to live up to [Russian] expectations,&amp;quot;  according to Reuters.\u00A0 4. It&amp;#039;s beginner&amp;#039;s luck. Some attribute Lipnitskaya&amp;#039;s Gumby-ness to her youth. &amp;quot;She doesn&amp;#039;t even have a spine,&amp;quot; U.S. figure skater Gracie Gold  has said. 5. She&amp;#039;s too intense. Lipnitskaya&amp;#039;s mother  has expressed concern\u00A0about Yulia&amp;#039;s competitive nature: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m almost afraid she&amp;#039;s going to mouth off to someone. She&amp;#039;s a girl with character; she&amp;#039;s capable of that.&amp;quot; If I were capable of bending my body like that, I&amp;#039;d probably do more than mouth off to people. Like, you know, knock these bitches out.\u00A0 Follow Tess on  Twitter.
