Russian tennis player Diane Schneider said she was trying not to take her silver medal from the Paris Olympics with her because she was afraid of losing it.
Schneider won a silver medal in doubles at the 2024 Paris Olympics with Mirra Andreeva.
— Do you take your medal with you everywhere?
— Not everywhere, it is at home in a special box. I’m afraid I’ll forget it somewhere; It also adds weight to the bag, since it is heavy.
At home I have a separate shelf with awards; my father recently built a new bookshelf. There is not enough space,” reports Schneider, correspondent.
The 20-year-old Russian is 13th in the WTA rankings.
