Russian figure skaters do not take any banned drugs, Canadian Olympic champion Megan Duhamel should not worry why Russians turn to their doctors during competitions, the USSR’s honored coach told . Tatyana Tarasova.
Duhamel, in an interview with YouTube channel The Skating Lesson, said foreign skaters training in Russia were given a substance like black tar instead of food during training. She also said that during the competition, the sports couple Ksenia Stolbova / Fedor Klimov, during the break after warming up, constantly went to the locker room with their doctor.
“And why did Duhamel stay silent for ten years and not report her suspicions before?” This is completely absurd, she should be ashamed. Our skaters don’t take anything forbidden and go to the doctor every five minutes. And why athletes go to the doctor is none of her business at all,” Tarasova told .
