Media links - results of this Saturday's competitions

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!

'The young girls failed  psychologically, but  the first time you compete on the senior podium - it's not very easy.  No  one is sad.  I  am very pleased with such a performance.  Everything  was fair enough, maybe not everywhere and in all things, but overall it was quite as expected, both our rivals, and the judging.' 'I began to experience more pain in the ankle - continued Aliya Mustafina. - To do the dismounts I had to muster all my strength and clench my teeth.  The coaches have d
