Triple European diving champion Julia Timoshina she told RT that she had reached a state where the fear of making a mistake or losing to someone was gone, and the enjoyment of her performance emerged.
Why do you keep jumping now?
– For pleasure. I finally reached a state where you get it from the jump itself, not from the scores that are on the scoreboard. The fear of making a mistake or losing to someone is completely gone. We already have some very strong girls on the tower, and I’m really not ashamed to give them anything. As soon as I realized this, completely different emotions arose. Much more positive.
And most importantly, I still want to jump – I haven’t eaten enough. I understood this very well when I watched the last world championship in Budapest on TV, which we didn’t go to.
Timoshinina, 25, is the silver medalist of the World Championships (2019), as well as the multiple European champion in diving. Her parents, Svetlana and Vladimir Timoshinin, are also 10-meter divers and several national champions.
