Reztsova, a three-time Olympic champion in biathlon and cross-country skiing, has died at the age of 58.

— I was in the same team with Anfisa Anatolyevna for a long time, she was a real leader, she had strong leadership qualities. She was very sociable, with a good sense of humor. Thanks to her talent and, to a greater extent, hard work, she trained almost as hard as the men’s team. She achieved the best and excellent sports results in cross-country skiing and biathlon. My daughters competed for the Anfisa Reztsova Prize in Khimki and met her there. It’s a shame she left us so soon. I cry with his loved ones and the biathlon community,” Chepikov told .

Reztsova won gold and silver in cross-country skiing at the 1988 Olympics and also won three world championships. In biathlon, the athlete won gold at the 1992 (sprint) and 1994 (relay) Games, and also became a silver medalist at the world championships.
