Senior men’s coach Russian national team biathlon Yuri Kaminsky told that between Nikita Porshnev and his coach Sergei Belozerov, there is no conflict, but there are disagreements regarding the athlete’s decision to run the sprint at the Russian Cup stage.
On Friday, Porshnev took 106th place in the sprint of the second stage of the Alfa-Bank Russian Cup in Khanty-Mansiysk. After the race, the 27-year-old biathlete, who was not part of the Russian national team, told that he had decided to end his professional career.
— Is there a conflict between the biathlete and the coach regarding today’s start?
“I wouldn’t call it a conflict, but rather a disagreement.” Nikita thought he could start. Athletes often think that everything is fine and wonderful for them. They focus on their feelings, but they need indicators, and the coach understands this better,” Kaminsky told .
Porshnev is the 2019 World Championships bronze medalist in the relay race and the 2019 Universiade winner in the 20 kilometer individual race. The athlete has been married to biathlete Anastasia Morozova since 2019. In July 2022, a daughter, Maya, was born in the family.
