Sport24 met with the Surerytor Tikumpor. The Dynamo Academy of Sports ended the strongest Cup in sports gymnastics. One of the most unusual winners of the Moscow tournament was the 27-year-old representative of Thailand Surinatorant Tikumporn. Sport24 correspondent Anastasia Loginova met with a gymnast and his team – some details will surprise you. In Thailand, sports gymnastics are poorly developed, so it is not surprising that athletes of the top -level level in the kingdom simply do not exist. The gold of Tikumporn at the Cup has become a real surprise for everyone – from the athlete himself to commenting broadcasts India Garibova And Lydia Ivanova. But Tatets spoke really very cool, having received almost 14 points from the judges for free exercises. This is his first victory at international competitions. “The competitions were well held. We can say that this is the best tournament in my life. I did not think that it would be possible to win gold – Russian gymnasts are very strong, ”says the athlete. Tikumporn calls his idol the legendary Kohi Utimur.The head coach of the Thai national team is a Japanese ex-gymnast Yoshiki. Nakanani reached the level of the national championship, but he never performed at large starts. Immediately years ago, the Japanese ended his career, worked for some time in a local club, and then decided that he wanted cardinal changes in life. At first, Yoshiki thought about options in the USA, Canada or Australia, but in the end almost a year ago was in Bangkok. His goal is to send at least one gymnast from Thailand to the Olympics-2028, which has never been in the history of the kingdom.Sportgymrus.ru guys are thoroughly, 6-7 hours a day. The climate in Bangkok is quite hot, so it is not easy. “Is it cold in Moscow? Oh yes, ”Surientoront laughs. In Russia, Tata is not the first time. Two years ago, he spent about a month in Penza at training camps – a place known in gymnastic circles. Previously, the largest national starts were regularly held there. But for the Japanese, a trip to the tournament was the first visit. “I managed to take a walk in the center of Moscow – a very large city, just fantastic. The air, by the way, is easier and cleaner than in Bangkok, ”Kindan notes.@yoshi_.0708 Despite the obvious progress, at the World Cup, the audience will not see Tikumporn. The reason, alas, is quite ordinary for small federations – the lack of funding. Officials claim a calendar plan for their athletes: the main tournament for the gymnast will be the games of South-Eastern Asia in December. The situation is as offensive as possible, because flying to Indonesia for the World Cup is clearly closer than to Moscow. The assistant shrugs – nothing depends on them in this situation. One can only hope that a historical victory in Russia will help attract the federation of the federation to a talented athlete.
