Russian Olympic Committee to award gymnast Alexei Nemov for his performance in Athens Olympics

A The Russian Olympic Committee will award Alexei Nemov with $40000 as the athlete demonstrated not only an outstanding performance, but also an extremely strong will at the Athens Olympics ITAR-TASS reported. In addition, the Russian Federation of journalists Covering Sports will submit a request to the Fair Play International Committee to grant Alexei Nemov an award from their organisation.

B The Russian athlete became the victim of some unfair judges who gave him unreasonably low marks for his performance at the horizontal bar. The public in the Olympic stadium became indignant with the judges’ decision. For 15 minutes, spectators expressed their protest by shouting and whistling. It was not only Russians but also the sports fans of other nationalities, including Greeks, Italians, Germans, Americans, Japanese, Koreans, Spanish, and Canadians, who participated in this protest. This public recognition was the true medal for the Russian athlete.

C The Russian delegation submitted a note of protest to the International Olympic Committee, but to no avail. However, we will always remember Alexey Nemov as a great gymnast as well as a great man who finished his athletic career with much dignity.

D “I finished my career with dignity, just as I had hoped. I am grateful to my fans, who gave me a tremendous amount of support. It is true happiness for an athlete when the public understands what is really going on,” said the famous gymnast.

E Being of such sound character, Alexei Nemov is sure to gain much success in his life beyond his athletic career.
