At the Russian Cup, Chikunova swam the 100 and 200 m breaststroke faster than the Olympic champions in these distances at the Games in Paris (France). For this achievement, Chikunova will receive 4 million rubles.
Tarasova reacted to the fact that CAS kept the 3rd place in the Olympic figure skating team championship for Russia
“Announcing Zhenya Chikunova at the competitions as a two-time Olympic champion is of course a cool decision on the part of the swimming federation.
Guys, why don’t you rename yourselves instead of making the athlete a laughing stock? For example, to the group Thirst for Olympic Recognition? Well, shorten it yourself to an abbreviation,” the journalist wrote on her Telegram channel.
