Konovalov: “Efimova did not give up in a difficult situation, films should be made about such a story”

Nikita Konovalov, winner of the world and European swimming championships, congratulated Yulia Efimova for trying to qualify for the Olympics.

Efimova, 32, received neutral status, but did not meet the standards for participation in the Paris Olympic Games during the Bahamas Championship.

“In any case,” Yulia tried, “she showed character. She was not frightened by the neutral status, long flights or harsh weather conditions. It delights and motivates many adolescents not to give up. Yes, she has nothing to lose. She doesn’t cling to a scholarship on the team like other swimmers. But we understand perfectly that in life many things can get in the way, many people give up on the little things.

Julia did not give up in a difficult situation. Yes, it didn’t work, but that’s not always the problem. Films should be made about such a story! And not due to the fact that we usually photograph and beautify everything only in light colors, ”said Konovalov, quoted by Metaratings.ru.

Efimova competed in the 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2021 Olympic Games, where she won two silver and one bronze medals.
