Double Olympic biathlon champion Svetlana Ichmouratova called Norwegian journalist Petter Soleng Skinstad’s remarks about success as nonsense Alexandra Bolshunova to the Spartakiad of the strongest.
Earlier, the Norwegian said that it was quite possible that Bolshunov’s victories at the Spartakiad of the Strongest were planned in advance.
– Of course, that doesn’t make sense! It’s like the proverb: he who suffers, speaks about it. If we reserved places on the podium for everyone, then why do our athletes have to train, compete and fight for victory? Maybe in Norway the places for athletes are divided and planned, but with us everything is fair.
Alexander Bolshunov is a unique skier and a great athlete. Born and lives in Russia. Let them envy,” Ishmuratova told .
Bolshunov is a three-time Olympic champion, world championship winner and two-time World Cup winner. On Saturday, February 17, Alexander won the 50-kilometer marathon at the Spartakiad of the Strongest in Tyumen. This season, the 27-year-old skier has won every individual race, with 21 consecutive victories.
The Spartakiad of the Strongest ended on Sunday, it took place in five regions of the country: in the Chelyabinsk region (Chelyabinsk, Zlatoust, Magnitogorsk, Kusa, Miass), Tyumen region (Tyumen), Krasnoyarsk region ( Krasnoyarsk), Sverdlovsk region (Nizhny Tagil) and Krasnodar region (Sochi).
