Probably no one expected this. on Sunday he won a bronze medal in the individual competition on the normal hill. The gold was won by the reliable Japanese Ryoyu Kobayashi this season, and the silver was also unexpectedly awarded to Austrian Manuel Fettner.
Controversial words of Babiarz and Kurski. Kubacki’s wife replies
The words commenting on the competition on TVP Przemysław Babiarz aroused a lot of controversy on Sunday, which suggested that it was thanks to the broadcast on Polish Television that Dawid Kubacki won the medal. – For reasons beyond TVP’s control, the jumps may not have enjoyed great popularity recently, but they returned home and there is an immediate effect – said the commentator after the competition.
Babiarz was echoed by the president of TVP on Twitter. – You saw what happened. As soon as jumping returned to Polish Television, the successes of the Poles came immediately. We have an Olympic Games medal for Poland! Two Poles in six, four in the final round. Bravo Polish jumpers, bravo Dawid Kubacki! Let’s be together with TVP – wrote the head of Polish Television.
A huge wave of criticism poured out on TVP representatives. Their words were even commented on by their wife – Ewa Bilan-Stoch, and soon afterwards the wife of our Sunday medalist – Marta Kubacka – decided to do the same.
– My personal husband won the medal for the third place IO only thanks to his hard work, many sacrifices and a whole host of people who (maybe not all – I do not know) do not look at where the broadcast was. I think so – his personal wife – wrote Kubacki’s wife on Twitter.
The next competitions in Beijing will be held in a few days. On Saturday, February 12, there will be an individual competition on the large hill, while two days later the jumpers will fight in the team competition. Even earlier, on Monday, February 7, the Polish team will compete in a mix. Apart from Kubacki and Stoch, Nicole Konderla and King Rajda will compete for the best place.
