Other information COMPETITION OVER COACHING
In 2021 he was offered a coaching role in the Ukrainian national team but decided to continue his competitive career instead. "Many people said that it's time for me to become the coach of the Ukrainian national team, especially since the position of senior coach became vacant. So I thought hard, pondered for a long time, weighed the pros and cons. And I came to the conclusion that I still want to be an athlete more than a coach. Because I have unfulfilled ambitions. An Olympic medal was and remains the goal of my career." (noc-odessa.org.ua, 14 Jul 2022)
