2013 Russian Long Jump World Champion Alexander Menkov said he expects to prepare for the BRICS Games and show a decent result in the tournament.
The BRICS Games will be held in Kazan in June 2024.
– Next year, it seems, we will have the BRICS Games, already good. If such competitions appeared in the first, in the second year of our suspension, then people, perhaps, would not lose hope. And now many of them just don’t have it.
I kept waiting for admission to come to a major tournament, give a good result and say goodbye. How do I show these people who kept us locked up for so many years that they did wrong in my life. It would be beautiful. But so far this opportunity has not presented itself and I keep jumping. Not so much for me, but for the younger generation. To see that they can’t give up. Besides, my whole life has been in athletics, and it’s hard to end up like that. But next season, apparently, will be the last. I really hope to prepare well for the BRICS Games, show a decent result and put an end to my career, quotes RT Menkov.
