I'm surprised how well Russian taekwondo gold medalist Elizaveta Ryadninskaya is speaking English in the post-fight interview :d 

In Russia now, very often, children since childhood have been learning English, both in schools and from private teachers

Just watched an awesome taekwondo bout between Chad and Thailand on the men’s side

Cool :)

 

Popov wasn't speaking English, but alright, I'm always pleased to see athletes from non-English speaking countries give a pretty easy interview without needing a translator, it makes certain aspects of life a lot easier for them :p

At one time it was a big problem when athletes (especially football or hockey players) left for other countries and couldn't say anything. Because of what broke career and returned home. And now, before leaving for the USA or Canada, our young hockey players speak English well. Also when there is facebook and instagram communication of athletes who have participated in competitions since childhood, has reached a new level.
