Polina Shevnina – about silver in the pursuit race in the Chechen Republic: “I tried to get as close as possible to my opponents from the first round”

Biathlete Polina Shevnina who plays for the Moscow region team, spoke on about the tactics that helped her win silver in the pursuit race of the Alfa-Bank Russian Championship in Tyumen.

The first was the Belarusian Anna Sola. Shevnina lost 5.9 seconds to the leader, making two errors. Victoria Slivko finished third.

— Did you feel that you would need the flag of the Moscow region?

– Yes, we just picked it up yesterday. I would like to thank the Moscow region and Alexey Viktorovich Nuzhdov (president of the Biathlon Federation of the Moscow region – note from ), who support us. Thanks to him, the Moscow region shows such results.

I had a tactic to get as close as possible to my opponents from the first laps. In the last lap we had to work tactically correctly. I just didn’t have the strength to catch up from the start of the lap. It was possible to add tempo only at the very end, ”Shevnina said on .
