Athletistic / Figure skating. Two-time Olympic biathlon champion Dmitry Vasiliev commented on the words of figure skating coach Alexander Zhulin. Earlier, Zhulin said skaters were performing “half drunk” during demonstrations.

According to Zhulin, athletes drink alcohol after completing their free skate. In this regard, they witness drunken demonstrations.

Zhulin said figure skaters went to exhibition shows ‘half drunk’

“I think this is some kind of misinformation, it just can’t happen, since alcohol is doping, I think half-drunk athletes should be immediately disqualified.

In shooting, alcohol is a direct drug because it helps the athlete relax and calm down. All of this is therefore prohibited. Even in theory, I can’t imagine biathletes going out drunk. It’s impossible!”, quotes Vassiliev, according to RIA Novosti.
