Triple Jump World Champion Koneva Talks About Motivation After BRICS Games
Earlier, the press service of the All-Russian Swimming Federation reported that the prize money will amount to 2 million rubles. These amounts will be received by athletes who, in the final of the Russian Cup, repeat or surpass the results of the champions of the Olympic Games in Paris (France).
“No (they will not compensate), because these competitions are not comparable to participation in the Olympic Games. And even if we became Olympic champions in Paris, we would receive more than two million rubles. But I would definitely like to express my deep gratitude for the support in such a difficult moment, for boosting our results with financial assistance. The only question that interests me is how much others will receive, in addition to the winner of the Games, because there was talk of results comparable to the Olympic final. So far, we have not seen the document with the prize money,” RIA Novosti quotes.
