The stage before the “world”
Tomorrow, the third stage of the Diamond League starts in Monaco, in which Kazakhstani athlete Olga Rypakova will perform in the triple jump. The team has been replenished with new bright personalities, so it will be much more interesting to watch them, because each of the athletes already has a “rich” performance history. This time, nine participants will enter the arena: Colombian Catherine Ibarguen, Patricia Mamona from Portugal, Venezuelan athlete Yulimar Rojas, Paraskevi Papachristou from Greece, two French athletes Janine Assani Issouf and Rugi Diallo, Kimbreli Williams from Jamaica, Romanian jumper Elena Andrea Panturoy and athlete representing the Republic of Kazakhstan Olga Rypakova. The day before the start, we managed to talk with Denis and Olga Rypakov, learn about the goals, mood and atmosphere before the competition. – Tell us how the mood is before the next start, because you didn’t really manage to take a break from Rabat? – The fighting spirit! We will hone the technique of jumping at an extremely competitive speed. The main thing is just the same: work on the run-up. Our task is: enter the jump at speed, and keep the maximum speed to the last repulsion, for the correct landing trajectory! All this is like preparing for the World Championships in London, because at the start of the seventh of August we have to be in the best shape! In this working mode, our athlete is preparing for tomorrow’s stage of the Diamond League. And we remind you that tomorrow at 00 : 05 on Kazsport TV channel you will personally be able to watch the performance of our Olympic champion Olga Rypakova in Monaco! Inna Semenyak
