Among Russian athletes there is a high level of competition in the triple jump, but departures abroad are needed to continue to improve in results, athlete Maria Privalova told .
The athlete is 21 years old, she became the third at the 2018 Youth Olympic Games in the triple jump. Maria is the daughter of the 2000 Games champion in the 400m hurdles Irina Privalova .
– Do you believe that our athletics will be back on the international stage in March this year?
– I really want to believe.
Do you want to compete abroad yourself? In theory, it’s a higher level, other rivals, fans, place, again…
– Of course, when you go abroad, when you face foreign athletes, the results increase. I would like to go somewhere.
– Athletes from other sports sometimes frankly admit that it is difficult for them to find the motivation to perform in the country. Where do you get it?
– I don’t know where I get the motivation to go to the start each time. But I want to say that we have a lot of strong girls in triple jump in Russia. I have a lot of rivals, it’s interesting to compete with them, the competition is strong. Many can show the best results,” Privalova told .
