Australian gymnast Alexandra Kiroi-Bogatyreva has told she is grateful to her family for their support in preparing for the Paris Olympics.
“I’m happy to have made it to the Olympics. I’m happy that my family and my coaches have made it possible for me to compete at the Olympics. There have been Australian gymnasts at the Games before, but everyone has their own path. I’m just happy to be here. I’ve had a tough journey to get to these Games, I’ll probably tell you about it one day.
— What are your plans for the future?
— Rest and then make decisions. I am still a law student and want to continue my studies.
— How is rhythmic gymnastics treated in Australia? Its attention is clearly less than that of swimming.
— Gymnastics is not developed at all in Australia. My parents pay for tickets to competitions, trips, coaches, not everyone knows about it. It is difficult for my family, I am very grateful to them for this support. I hope that one day gymnastics will be more developed in Australia, “Kiroi-Bogatyreva told .
The Paris Olympics will end on August 11.
