“Bolshunov could have rested on his laurels, but he continues to write the history of cross-country skiing in Russia” – Vyalbe

President of the Russian Ski Federation (FLGR) Elena Vyalbe declared that the three-time Olympic champion Alexander Bolshunov motivates other Russian skiers with his results.

– Many people say that Bolshunov does not allow others to win… But he gives us such an opportunity to develop that, it seems to me, the rest of the skiers should now pray to God so that they have a such opportunity. The results were such that Bolshunov won only a few minutes in any of the races; He writes his history and that of ski racing in our country with great composure. I completely agree with this. It would seem that a person has everything, three Olympic gold medals, total cups, a world champion title… He can already rest on his laurels, but Sasha is not from this opera, he is dedicated to sport.

We spoke to him recently, he asked about the upcoming Olympic Games. I said I don’t know. He said to me, “Well, if it’s not 2026, then 2030. Oh, that’s it, I’ll be so old now.” I say: “No, Sanya. You recently experienced your peak as a skier. He said, “Okay. Okay, so I’ll be there in 2030.”

It’s clear that he forces the guys next to him to tense up and be on their guard all the time. Considering that he has everything, but in every race he strives to be only the first, this deserves special words of admiration, ”Vyalbe said on the air of the program “Everyone for the game ! on .

Last season, 27-year-old Bolshunov won 25 victories in personal races.
