President of the Russian Biathlon Union (RBR) Viktor Maygurov told who he sees as the best biathletes in the country in 2023.
– Among men, the undisputed leader of Russian biathlon today is Eduard Latypov. In all competitions held under the auspices of the Russian Biathlon Union, he is now the main favorite to win, although Eduard does not always know how to realize his potential, especially in the shooting department.
Among women, like a year ago, it is difficult to single out a leader, but I want to note the unconditional progress of Natalia Shevchenko. Twelve months ago, at this time of year, she was called a “former skier”, today Natasha is a four-time Russian biathlon champion. Perhaps no other Russian biathlete has made such a powerful step forward in a calendar year,” Maigurov told .
Eduard Latypov became the leader of the general SBR ranking among men at the end of last season. Natalia Shevchenko became a three-time Russian champion at the Winter Russian Championship in Khanty-Mansiysk and also won gold at the Summer Chechen Championship in Tyumen.
