Bolshunov said he understands Klebo’s words about his victory at the Championship Heights tournament
Russian skier Alexander Bolshunov responded to Norwegian Johannes Klebo, who laughed at his victory at the Championship Heights tournament. His words leads “Championship”.
The athlete said that he understood the opponent’s answer and adequately assessed the situation. He drew attention to the fact that the results in the skiathlon and the 15 km race at the Russian tournament exactly coincided with the results at the World Championships in Planica, Slovenia. “Lagging behind second place is five and six seconds. The picture seems to be copied, ”Bolshunov emphasized.
During the competition in Malinovka, Bolshunov said that the real world championship is now taking place in Russia, and not in Planica. In response, Klebo said that he did not consider the tournament in Russia worthy of attention. “I heard that Bolshunov defended the world title. Let him think what he wants,” he mocked.
In March 2022, the Norwegian Ski Federation suspended the Russians from participating in tournaments under its auspices. Later, the International Ski Federation extended this measure to all international competitions organized by it.
