Kiripichnikova now it`s French. Jefimova, the one from Russia (because she is even younger from Estonia and also swims breaststroke), is probably already old and has no chance of winning medals. It's strange that she's still thinking about something.

Yes, it is about that "old Yefimova".

She did not apply for the neutral status until the last moment.

 

At the last moment she decided to try and get the status quickly. 

 

But she had only one week to get OQT. So she tried to go to Italy but all the entries deadlines passed.

So she went to Bahamas and expected to improve her season best for a second but failed.

She used to be a nice girl, although she was more of a "girl next door" type :P I remember that she had a conflict with Meliutyte years ago. Did Yefimova comment on the war in anyway?

I did not hear nothing from her pro or contra.

 

A lot of athletes and coaches in russia are silent because they want to compete / train internationally.

But those who are not going to do this support the regime actively (Vaelbe, Karyakin, Valuev, Zhurova and e t.c.). 

 

I remember that battle in London 2012. Meliutyte was a real sensation of the Games.

But you are it is too late for her.

Unfortunately, Pilato is not as talented as Meliutyte to fight for gold in Paris. Pilato once seemed like a great talent when she broke the 50-meter world record. Then she was the 100 world champion in 2022 but with a rather poor time and a weak team. Actually, I wonder why there was such strong swimming in Ukraine - the times of Klochkowa, Lisogor etc, when there were very few such indoor 50-meter swimming pools. Once, when I was visiting a friend in Lutsk - sometime in 2017, I wanted to go to the swimming pool in the summer and it was only small recreational pool with many people. And Lutsk is a center of oblast city, so it's not that small.

Thanks for the good news. Czech federation mentioned that they are waiting for confirmation as Novotná is first below the line.  Let's see what they post today.

"The Belarusian Wrestling Federation reports with great regret that 9 out of 10 wrestlers selected for Paris will not take part in the Olympic Games by decision of the IOC, Abubakar Khaslakhanov will become the only representative of Belarusian wrestling."

Apparently also by their own decision, because more than 1 wrestler was accepted and invited, but most were declined:

 

 

Edit: I see I am mightily late with this information, sorry
