Care Tikhonova
Voluntarily resigned president of the SLR - Alexander Tikhonov, was replaced by Mikhail Prokhorov (as we have already written). What does this mean for Team Russia and all of our biathlon? What awaits us in the near season?
For the team and coaches will be easier. Many remember the conflict and Rozhkova Sergei Tikhonov and how it ended (Letter to the protection Rozhkova). Therefore, the climate in the team will become better coaches and athletes will no longer fear that the evil words they can expel from the national team.
Alexander Tikhonov - great athlete, 4-times Olympic champion, but what he was manager? I think we already know (the scandals with team sponsors). But Mikhail Prokhorov people from business and be able to make a good commercial project biathlon. We should not fear this. Brightest example - soccer - the most successful business project. If the money will come in sports, the biathlon and the future looks more promising. And can our beloved sport and television will notice. And it is only football and show!
