Double Olympic swimming champion Yevgeny Rylov told that he did not expect anything from World Aquatics’ decision on possible admission to international departures, as it would not change anything for him.
World Aquatics, at least until the end of the World Championship in Fukuoka (until July 30), does not intend to address the question of the participation of Russians in international competitions, from which they are suspended on the background of the situation in Ukraine.
— Are you awaiting the decision of World Aquatics?
“But that won’t change anything. There will be good news – I will swim and prepare for competitions, there will be bad news – I will swim and prepare for competitions, but on a different schedule.
Do you feel like you’ve been “cancelled”? And if so, does it bother you?
– If they never let me go anywhere again, in any case it will be a blow for me – I was certainly not prepared for this at the beginning of my career. It is clear that in this case the international career is over. But my result cannot be undone, – said Rylov “”
World Aquatics (formerly FINA – Approx. “”) suspended Rylov for 9 months, disqualification effective April 20. In March 2022, Rylov attended a concert-rally in Luzhniki dedicated to the Day of the reunification of Crimea and Sevastopol with Russia.
