Champion opens up about anorexia

MOSCOW - She was Russia's golden girl at the 2014 Winter Olympics, the 15-year-old skater with the Schindler's List theme tune who won an Olympic title and a hug from President Vladimir Putin.

But now Yulia Lipnitskaya's career is over, and she's opening up about the cause - chronic anorexia.

Lipnitskaya said on Tuesday the eating disorder dogged her "not just for one year, or two, or three" and it eventually caused her to check into a clinic in Israel in January this year.
