President of the Russian Ski Racing Federation Elena Vyalbe in a conversation with a correspondent, she expressed the hope that the Olympic champion Sergei Ustyugov will be able to perform at the next stage of the Russian Cup and Spartakiad.
This season, 31-year-old Ustyugov has not yet played. The next stage of the Russian Cup will take place in Tyumen on February 3-4. Cross-country skiing competitions within the framework of the Spartakiad of the Strongest will take place from February 9 to 18 in Tyumen.
— Of course, (Alexandre) Bolshunov is taller than all the other Russian skiers, that’s for sure. If Seryoga Ustyugov were three or four years younger and without his health problems, then yes, we would have two golden does.
– Sergei is determined to return at the same time.
– Of course, he trains, wants to perform, it’s normal. This is clear to any fool. But for me it is much more important that athletes have the opportunity to live a full life after sport. Therefore, I want him to first heal all his wounds and then return to the camp. I hope he will be at the Spartakiad. And not just at the Spartakiad, but at the next stage,” Vyalbe told .
