The Russian Team Championship ended in Sochi, which was one of the first starts of the summer season for athletes. In the 110-meter hurdles, Sergey Shubenkov snatched victory from Artem Makarenko in the last meters.

In a similar discipline among women, there was a small sensation: Maria Lasitskene lost to Belarusian Karina Demidik. The Olympic champion attributed her failure to problems with her Achilles. The world champion in pole vaulting this year will not be seen by fans in the sector.
