Olympic figure skating champions Victoria Sinitsina and Nikita Katsalapov ended his athletic career. About this, RIA Novosti Sport said the coach of the duo Alexander Zhulin .
– Nikita and Vika have finished their sports careers. There are several reasons. First, they are champions and have achieved everything. Nikita even won the Olympics twice. Second, the age is such that such a decision can be made. Last but not least, the lack of motivation. There are no international competitions. Killing yourself on the ice inside the country is one of the main reasons,” Zhulin said.
Earlier it became known that the International Skating Union (ISU) has extended the suspension of Russian and Belarusian athletes from competitions under its auspices. According to the new rules, the penalties are of indefinite duration.
Sinitsina and Katsalapov won team gold and silver in ice dancing at the 2022 Games in Beijing.
