Olympic medalist in diving Alexandre Bondar said he expected worse weather conditions at the Kremlin Cup in the outdoor pool.
Bondar won in the individual platform dive. In the weather forecast for Sunday in Moscow there was a thunderstorm, but the weather remained fine during the competition.
The wind blew this afternoon. Didn’t that interfere?
“It didn’t hurt, in fact we were expecting worse weather. I thought it would generally be difficult, but God had mercy,” Cooper told .
– You have not performed at the “Jeux de l’Amitié” as an “individual”. Did that give you the opportunity to rebuild yourself or, on the contrary, did you feel this break in departures?
– Both. Not as tired as the guys, but psychologically the break is harder, I wanted to show good and beautiful jumps today.
– Gleb Halperin said that at one point he even jumped in the hail.
– Something happened. True, I did not jump in the hail, but at the European Championship in Belgrade the temperature was +14. Even before the competition on the tower, he got a pretty otitis media.
