Diver Alexandre Bondar on , he said that he did not expect to win the competition on the 10-meter tower at the Russian championship even after the final jump.
Olympic medalist Bondar won the Russian championship, which ended in Yekaterinburg. He scored 511.30 points. The second was Ruslan Ternovoy (498.35), the third – Sandro Rogava (457.10).
– Thank you all for your congratulations! To everyone who was sick, worried and supported me! I am very grateful to you!
All in all, I was not counting on my victory even after my last jump. But this is a sport, and Ruslan [Терновой] made a big mistake. And thus gave me a gold medal. I advise Ruslan not to get upset and dare. He is a young man. He still has a long way to go. Everything will be alright.
– Your jumps, probably, did not go as you wanted? For what?
– I think that, unfortunately, at the top of my form, I failed to adapt. But it is according to my feelings and my feelings. Maybe I just haven’t had time to adjust to the fact that 30 is still approaching. Everything can be. I can’t say because after the competition we will analyze and discuss everything with the coach and analyze all our flights,” Bondar said on .
Live broadcasts of the Russian Diving Championship took place from June 24 to 29 on the Match outfit TV channels, as well as on the sportbox.ru and matchtv.ru websites.
