World swimming record holder Evgenia Chikunova told that she only thinks about the seconds she is on the starting line; the rest, including the official announcements, is not the focus of her attention.
Earlier it became known that the All-Russian Swimming Federation (RSF) will announce Chikunova during its competitions as the winner of the 2024 Olympic Games.
— I am the person for whom only seconds are always a priority. Of all my achievements, the main one is the official world record, and most importantly, my goal is to improve accordingly. This is my main goal and this is all I think about when I go to the start, “Chikunova told , commenting on the question of her attitude to such an official announcement at the start.
Chikunova in the Russian Cup final showed better results than those with which Tatyana Smith (South Africa) and Kate Douglass (USA) won the 100 and 200 meters breaststroke respectively at the 2024 Olympic Games.
