FURY AT RUSSIANS IN PARIS OLYMPICS

Ukraine's golden girl feels injustice

But there are still moments when Ukraine's golden girl feels overcome with her nation's grief.

The anger and sadness will rise inside when she hears about Russia's latest act of aggression or learns of the latest death toll.

"They are terrorists," says the high jump world champion. "And they have shown it for two years."

She is infuriated by the prospect of compatriots in other events having to face Russian and Belarussian athletes who are permitted to compete under a neutral flag at the Olympics.
