It's worth reminding that before Russian athletes have never won medals in this discipline at the previously held Olympic Games. The last time only Soviet athletes managed to take a medal in this discipline at the Olympics in 1968, Soviet Sport notes.
Now Russian athletes are in second place in the medal standings. The Russians have two gold medals, three silver and two bronze medals. Russia is ahead of Sweden, which has three gold medals.
