Suurema osa oma senisest karj\u00e4\u00e4rist L\u00e4tit esindanud Zunte vahetas 2022. aasta s\u00fcgisel koduriigi Eesti vastu. Otsus s\u00fcndis loomulikul moel \u2013 tema ema on eestlanna ning vanaisa p\u00e4rit Tallinnast. \u00abOlen s\u00fcdames eestlane ja see tundus ainu\u00f5ige samm,\u00bb selgitas Zunte EOK pressiteate vahendusel. Kahetsust pole ta tundnud hetkekski. \u00abMitte kunagi. Isegi mitte sekundiks.\u00bb<\/p>\n
Skeletonis\u00f5it hakkas Zuntele meeldima juba \u00fcle k\u00fcmne aasta tagasi, kui ta vaatas 2014. aasta Sot\u0161i ol\u00fcmpiam\u00e4nge. \u00abN\u00e4gin siis telerist esimest korda skeletoni ja m\u00f5tlesin, et peaksin seda proovima. See ala n\u00f5uab palju nii f\u00fc\u00fcsiliselt kui vaimselt. T\u00f5si, pean natuke hull olema, aga tegelikult on k\u00f5ik tippsportlased oma olemuselt omamoodi hullud,\u00bb muigas Zunte.<\/p>\n

Ol\u00fcmpiap\u00e4\u00e4s Milano Cortinasse s\u00f5ltub eelk\u00f5ige tulemustest jaanuari l\u00f5puni peetavatel MK-etappidel. Sel n\u00e4dalavahetusel v\u00f5isteldakse L\u00e4tis Siguldas. \u00abPean v\u00f5istlema nii h\u00e4sti kui v\u00f5imalik ja v\u00f5imalikult palju. See on ainus, mida ma teha saan \u2013 ja loota parimat,\u00bb s\u00f5nas Zunte, kelle fookus ongi praegu t\u00e4ielikult kvalifikatsiooniv\u00f5istlustel.<\/p>\n
Kuigi Zunte on praegu ainus Eesti sportlane sellel alal, ei pea ta end \u00fcksikuks. \u00abArvan, et see on hoopis \u00e4ge. See teebki mind natuke eriliseks,\u00bb \u00fctles ta.<\/p>\n
S\u00fcmboolselt kannab Zunte Eesti v\u00e4rve ka kiivril \u2013 seal on kujutatud rahvuslill rukkilill, mis on stiliseeritud lumehelbeks. \u00abTahtsin midagi, mis sobiks nii talispordi kui ka Eestiga,\u00bb selgitas ta. Eestit esindades tunneb ta end h\u00e4sti. \u00abTeam Estonia on nagu \u00fcks suur pere. Mul on v\u00e4ga hea tunne Eesti v\u00e4rvides v\u00f5istelda,\u00bb \u00fctles Zunte.<\/p>\n
Ta lisas, et kohanemisele aitab kaasa ka kihlatu, BMXi s\u00f5itja Ernests Zebolds, kellel on ol\u00fcmpiakogemus suvistelt Pariisi m\u00e4ngudelt. \u00abTa teab, mida t\u00e4hendab p\u00fc\u00fcelda oma esimesele ol\u00fcmpiale. Kui olen vaimselt piiri peal, teab tema, mis mulle k\u00f5ige paremini m\u00f5jub,\u00bb selgitas Zunte.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Suurema osa oma senisest karj\u00e4\u00e4rist L\u00e4tit esindanud Zunte vahetas 2022. aasta s\u00fcgisel koduriigi Eesti vastu.
