Swimmer Prigoda called the opportunity to sit at home a plus of suspension from world tournaments
Multiple winner of the world championships in swimming, Kirill Prigoda, called the pluses of the removal of Russians from international tournaments. It is reported by TASS.
“To some extent, this is better, because if you constantly get something, then you get tired of it, and now we have the opportunity to close, sit at home and think about our mistakes,” the athlete said. At the same time, Prigoda noted that the Russians would definitely return to the international arena.
The Russian swimmer added that he missed world starts. “Like everyone in the national team, everyone wants to plunge into that atmosphere again,” said Prigoda.
In April 2022, the International Swimming Federation (FINA) banned Russians from participating in competitions under its auspices. In February of this year, the organization announced the transfer of the 2025 FINA World Championships from Russia.
