- The capital of Mongolia, we arrived a week before the start, " says Sasha. Four days fought in the hall with local girls and boys worked hard. So, of course, very glad to win bronze, the more it is a ranking tournament, but I know for sure - could reach the final. Just the Grand Prix started for me very hard. I don't know why. Most likely, it has started to decline, as in the last two months, we were constantly in competition – the body was tired. But that's okay – failed to fight for the gold medal but was fighting for the bronze medal, pulled to the Chinese in 15 seconds before the end of the fight, having even one "shido" (warning). Very happy that there was reward for our country. Although, frankly, none too pleased with their struggles in the small final. It wasn't mine. Kind of want to make a throw, but did not work. Saved believing in myself, for I was set on the medal, and rival, of course, wasn't easy. Only, she, I think, did not expect that in the end I will be able to make the throw from one knee. And it was up to me.

During the afternoon session you won the owner of the Mat, however, in the semi-finals before losing to the Korean. What can you say about these competitors?
- Actually Mongol Horlladay Bishrelt was amazing. She lost because of "shido", but in the following matches have destroyed all "IPPON" (an early victory). It was so beautiful! I was able to overcome her, the other strong judoka – no. In short, the Mongolian judoka really surprised me. Yu Jen Kahn? Don't even know how to explain my failure with her. I was unlucky. When starting the fight, you know that I could not do it, and that is all. So was angry. Absolutely nothing worked. Besides, I lost to the Korean in the following way: did the cast – did not work, she took hold and got out. It was time of "YUKO". Although I lost exactly the same at the recent Asian championship (quarter-finals) fighting with her and placed fifth (13-15 May, Kuwait). Therefore, we need to sit down and think about our mistakes and tactics. Ahead after all – home championship (August 24-30). We must gather all our strength and perform well in Astana. Really want to return to my native Shymkent with medal. And I will do my best. I hope fortune will be mine (smiles)

-Stop! What about naturalized the Mongol Otgontsetseg Galbadrakh? Initially, because she was the only one who applied to the weight category 48 kg for the world Cup?- No, we both compete at the World in this weight class. So decided the coaching staff. Declare officially. Besides, I'm a native Kazakh and have to fight there. A little tired, but in good physical shape. Motivation is just outrageous. Eyes burned. All thoughts are about the world Cup and winning the license for the Olympic games in Rio de Janeiro (2016). I will fight, not sparing myself any second. Will not be easy, but this is life, where is not easy take out the fish from the pond (smiles)

- So last year's thought of at all to finish your career and focus on family life and child birth, quit from your head for some time?- While the sport won't let me go (laughs).

- What about the wedding? After all, your young man – canoeist Sergey Emelyanov – already made you an offer hands and hearts. And day was chosen magic – December 31, 2014..."Get marry ?" I don't know yet (laughs). With our constant traveling to camps and competitions... Maybe this year will be married, but that's not a fact. We'll see(smiling).
