Multiple Olympic champion in cross-country skiing Alexander Bolshunov responded to the words of Veronica Stepanova, who called his victories in local tournaments boring. His words are quoted “Championship”.
“He made many apologies for his work. So much so that I started to wonder; What did he say, reconsider or what? But I thought that I should not waste my feelings on a person who is not at all interesting to me. Anyway, it happened and he passed me. I understand that there are athletes who are ready to take the name Bolshunov at any opportunity. “For God’s sake, it doesn’t bother me at all,” said Bolshunov.
Bolshunov won the 50 km classic style marathon, classic sprint, skiathlon, time trial and freestyle team sprint at the 2024 Spartakiad.
The skier is a two-time World Cup champion and Tour de Ski champion. At the Olympic Games in Beijing, the Russian won five medals, including three gold.
Bolshunov, like all Russian skiers, was suspended from participating in the last World Cup races and finished the 2021/22 season early, finishing second in the overall World Cup standings.
