Beijing 2022 Olympic champion skier Natalya Nepryaeva in a conversation with a correspondent, she spoke about the possible lack of prize money in domestic competitions next season.
– Which competitions will be the main ones for you in the coming season?
– The main start is the alternate world championship. I will trust it.
– Now it is said that there will be no prize money for skiers at Russian national competitions. How bad news is that for you?
– It’s not nice, of course. I don’t really want to race for medals.
“But it’s hard to believe that the most successful winter sports federation doesn’t have sponsors willing to provide prize money.
– God forbid, if there are. I will be very happy.
– Are you demotivated by the fact that the next season will have to take place in Russia? Or is our skiing competitive enough to keep improving?
– There are a few. But I try to fight it.
Russian and Belarusian athletes have been suspended from competitions under the auspices of the International Ski Federation (FIS) due to the situation in Ukraine.
