The biathlete does not expect to participate in the World Cup
Ukrainian biathlete Dmitry Pidruchny confirmed that his racing performance for the remainder of the season was unlikely.
“I think I have completed my performances at the World Cup. Unless I get better very quickly, and if the team needs me. As for Östersund, I doubt it. Yes, and I doubt Oslo. I will try to prepare for the championship of Ukraine. Maybe I’ll run some races, maybe that’s all. Because I have a thirst for starts. And my season was so short. This, of course, crushes, and I want to start. If I recover quickly, I will start at the Ukrainian Championship, so as not to forget what competition is.”
“I am glad that I was able to compete this season at the World Championships, because this is the main start of the season. I prepared for it and I think I did it pretty well. Unfortunately, it was not possible to extend the season qualitatively, so this is a little disappointing, ”said the athlete.
Earlier, the coach of the men’s national team of Ukraine Yuray Sanitra said that Pidruchny had a coronavirus. Due to illness, the biathlete missed the pursuit at the World Cup in Nove Mesto.
Recall that Pidruchny had an operation in Germany in December. The athlete missed part of the season due to a torn meniscus.
