Biathlete of the Russian national team Anastasia Goreeva, who won the Small Crystal Globe in the individual races of the Alfa-Bank Cup of Russia, told that this was a great achievement for her because it shoots unstable.
The 24-year-old scored 114 points in two Russian Cup races in the 2023/24 season. On Thursday, she finished second in the race at the final stage of the Cup in Ufa. Second place in the individual ranking was shared by Anastasia Shevchenko and Anastasia Egorova (both scored 88 points).
— What does a crystal globe mean for a biathlete?
– Such a nice bonus. Last year I took the Large Crystal Globe, but I didn’t take the small ones, but now it’s the other way around. It’s especially nice to have won the globe in the individual races. This is actually a “wow” for me.
– For what? Discipline you like least?
“My father laughed and said sarcastically: “The most important shooter in the biathlon won the globe in the individual race. » I shoot inconsistently, at the Spartakiad in the individual race I took 34th place, and here I managed to win the globe.
— Is the individual race an outdated format or a classic not to be forgotten?
– Rather the second option. She needs to be loved. But honestly, I don’t like individual racing (laughs).
– Will this cup help you love him?
– Maybe yes. I have already proven to myself several times that I can run individual races. And last season I won, but I still don’t feel much love for her. I prefer contact races or sprinting,” Goreeva told .
