бобслеистке

Российской бобслеистке Ирине Скворцовой, возможно, удастся спасти ногу...
Does he say "бобслеистке?" The ending doesn't sound like -ке.
thanks!

like -кии or -кий (i really can't tell the difference between them.)
In the last sentence he says девушке and I hear the -ке.

He says бобслеистке, and shouldn't sound "ке" because the "е" is unstressed. It should be a short "ки" at the ending. The same about "девушке".

It's a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near-close ... nded_vowel
