The senior coach of the Russian national ski team Yuri Borodavko told how Russian Alexander Bolshunov reacted to the defeat from the Norwegian Johannes Klebo in the Tour de Ski. His words are quoted by RIA Novosti.
“Alexander is the kind of person who sets himself up for victory in every race. If something fails, then he experiences, carries it in himself. At such a moment, there is no need to get into his soul, ask some stupid questions, because everything is clear anyway, ”said Borodavko. He added that Bolshunov will take time to recover and get in optimal shape.
This season Bolshunov finished second in the overall Tour de Ski standings. Klebo won the victory. In the two previous seasons, the Russian won the race.
Bolshunov is the current owner of the World Cup. He did not fully prepare for the season, as he broke his jaw in the summer.
