BREAKING NEWS: Bulgarian ice dance couple Albena Denkova and Maxim Staviski, last year's silver medallists, withdrew from the European championships on Friday because of illness. "An ISU medical advisor diagnosed Denkova with tracheo-bronchitis and a temperature of 38.2 Celsius and for this reason the couple has withdrawn," a statement from the governing body of figure skating said.
