Media links - results of this Saturday's competitions

By
Competitions are underway - both the French International (World Cup Category 'A') and the Jesolo Cup, which embraces both senior and junior teams.

There is a live blog of the French International finals at the Gymnastics Examiner, now (14.00 GMT).

I am grateful to the All Around Forum (Albert) for links to the results of the Jesolo Cup :

Senior team

Senior all around

Not a great competition for the Russian girls who came third as a team behind the USA and Italy, but then again this was a very inexperienced team.  Belokobylskaya was the top Russian girl all around in 7th place.

The Couch Gymnast carries a report of the junior competition, which the USA won by a clear margin over the Russian juniors, with Italy in third.  Anastasia Grishina won the bars title, and piibunina provides a video of her routine.

Full results of qualification for the Paris World Cup event are here.  With only four gymnasts competing in each final, it's anyone's guess who can win, but I'll update with a link to the results as soon as they are available.  Albert points to the videos available on eipos24's Youtube channel.

Enjoy!

"A Really Good International Level": Alfosov on the Return of Russian Gymnasts, Belyavsky's Videos, and the Games Qualification Alfosov: Belyavsky's presence on the team was a big plus Interview by Elena Vaitsekhovskaya  Google translate Russian gymnasts competing under neutral status will be able to take their first step toward qualifying for the Los Angeles Olympics as early as October, Valery Alfosov, head coach of the Russian men's team, told RT. He believes that qualifying for not only the individual but also the team competition at the World Championships is one of the season's greatest achievements. He also explained the criteria he uses to compare his players with their competitors and described David Belyavsky's decision last year as hard-won. The current season began with good news for the gymnasts: almost all of the leading Russian team members are participating in international competitions. Does this mean the suspension situation is a thing of...

Who really won the WAG All Around?

You will find a link to the FIG's newly published book of results at the Olympic Games here .  This year, they have broken down the judge's execution scores so you can see exactly how each judge evaluated the gymnasts' performances.  It makes for interesting reading - if only I had more time to analyse each judge's marking.  A skim reading already highlights multiple inconsistencies in individual judges' marks and makes you wonder why they bother with the jury at all. I have taken the time to look at the reference judges' scores for the top four in the women's all around.  The FIG explains here what their role is, and how they are selected.  I even used my calculator, which is a risky thing in my hands.  My, how I wish we could have seen a similar document for the Tokyo World Championships. I wonder if anyone can explain how, if the FIG's Code of Points is so objective and fair, it is possible to come up with two different results using two differ...

Viktoria Komova - apology

By
Viktoria wrote some hasty words last night in the heat of the moment.  We all have such times, when hurt feelings lead us to behave uncharacteristically.  It is not important what she said; it is important that Vika has reflected and wants us all to read this message which she published on VK.com this morning. "Dear friends! I want to apologize for my statements about American girls, about drugs, all my words were spoken on emotions. Of course I haven't any proof and didn't really mean it and so on... I am so sorry. I want to apologize for my character to all of you". Vika, we are still with you every step of the way.
