This was announced by the 31-year-old athlete. She said that she sees no further prospects for the admission of athletes from aggressor countries to international tournaments, therefore, she is seriously considering the option of ending her career.
Klishina also noted that she was going to stay in the United States, where she moved back in 2013..
“I don’t see a gap now, so I don’t see the point in hoping for something and training. Someone might see. I believe that sport is not the end of life. This is a part, a great stretch, but not the whole life. Yes, I devoted most of my time to this, but there are many opportunities and other things, directions that an athlete can do outside of a career. But I don’t want to just try to prolong it for the sake of a possible return to the international arena. I want to know 100%, and not be in standby mode,"
