Vice President of the Russian Swimming Federation Yevgeny Korotyshkin said that it was worth doing without forecasts on the eve of the World Short Course Swimming Championships in Budapest, because the main thing is to return to the international stage.
The national championship, which ended on Tuesday in St. Petersburg, became a qualifier for the Russians.
— What are your performance predictions at the World Championships?
“We can’t make predictions now, the main thing is that athletes start performing on the international stage. All preparations were now underway for the Russian Championship. Athletes who were unable to realize their potential will be given the opportunity to perform.
— Are we riding as a team or as neutral athletes?
— Let’s not make loud statements, it is important to participate now and start getting into the rhythm of the competition. We are all looking forward to this. A big thank you to the whole team and the federation. I received letters last night, people are working for this 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The main thing is that the athletes rebuild and are ready to perform. We need to focus on that. We ourselves are waiting for something good,” Korotychkin’s words are reported by .
The World Short Course Swimming Championships will take place in Budapest from December 10 to 15.
