Anna Prakaten won the silver medal in rowing at the Olympics

"I'm euphoric! Nice shock! I could not even have thought a year ago that I could race at such a level and defeat these rivals. I'm happy! This season is the best in my career, I could only dream of this. These are our Olympic Games!", - said the Russian woman after the finish.

Anna Prakaten 'played for Belarus until 2017. Note that in April 2021, she won the European Championship, beating her rivals by almost seven seconds. In May, she became the winner of the Lucerne Regatta - a stage of the World Cup.

It's worth reminding that today Yevgeny Rylov became the absolute Olympic champion: taking first place in the 100-meter race, he turned out to be the best in the 200-meter backstroke distance.
