Olympic champion and State Duma deputy Svetlana Jourova told that money at the 2024 Games was reserved for tennis players Mirra Andreeva And Diane Schneider This is a good achievement, but it is unlikely to be noticed by the global community.
In the final match, Andreeva and Schneider lost to the Italian duo Sara Errani/Jasmine Paolini (3rd seed) with a score of 6:2, 1:6, 7:10. This medal was the first for Russian athletes at the Games in the French capital, which will end on August 11.
— It would be great if the medal was gold. But silver is also a good achievement for the girls. It is a pity that this is probably our only medal at the Olympic Games. We can only be upset that other athletes were not able to win awards. I expected more from the tennis players.
— How will the world community react to money?
“They think that no one in the world will notice our medal. They try to avoid us. It’s like we don’t exist,” Zhurova told .
Russian athletes are participating in the Paris Games in neutral status.
