Russian figure skater admits he has no plans to fight for victory at the 2022 Olympics

Russian figure skater Andrei Mozalev admitted that he was not going to fight for victory at the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. The absence of such plans for the athlete is reported by Championship.com.

Mozalev noted that he was not very worried before the starts. “It was clear that I didn’t go there to fight for first places, but just to enjoy this Olympics, as the first experience, to feel what the Olympics are,” the skater said.

The athlete found it difficult to answer the question of how his performance at the Olympics affected him. “Approaches have changed, but in general I can’t evaluate myself that way. It should be done by others,” he stressed.

Mozalev was able to qualify for the Olympic Games thanks to bronze at the 2022 Russian Championship. In Beijing, the Russian athlete took 19th place.
