Russian Elizaveta Kuzina who won the three-meter springboard diving competition at the BRICS Games, said that in the athletes’ village it was customary to celebrate their victories without alcohol.
Based on the results of five attempts, Kuzina scored 333.75 points on Monday. Kuzina and Ilya Molchanov won gold in synchronized diving on the three-meter springboard in Kazan on Sunday
“Today we could have jumped a lot better, but the fatigue from yesterday took its toll.” I couldn’t really recover; I couldn’t sleep for a long time.
— Yesterday, in the village where the athletes live, there was Sabantuy. Didn’t you celebrate your medal there?
“I arrived, had dinner and immediately went to rest. I think today, maybe, I will go for a walk, dance and have a delicious meal. I think I can point that out.
— Is it possible to bring alcohol to the village?
— No, you can’t drink or smoke (laughs).
– How to celebrate then?
– Well, you can, for example, eat a piece of cake without it. “I feel more comfortable without alcohol,” reports the correspondent, according to Kuzina’s words.
The BRICS Games in the capital of Tatarstan will end on June 23.
