Swimming world record holder Evgenia Chikunova told she would only benefit from the three-time Olympic medalist’s return to competition Yulia Efimova .
Efimova intends to compete for the first time after the Tokyo Games at the Russian Championship, which will take place in November in St. Petersburg. Meanwhile, Chikunova broke the world record in the 200-meter breaststroke.
– I am for ! Julia is a fighter. She is very, very competitive. And if she reaches good speeds, it will only be a plus for me, because to a certain extent I miss the 200m fight, so it will be even more interesting and spectacular. And it will be interesting to see how this all plays out. I don’t even know if I could go back to his situation. She’s great,” Chikunova told .
