Full results for this competition have yet to be made available. The English language website for the competition is here, but as yet there is but an archive of past results available.
Nevertheless, some ideas of the competition outcome have leaked out, and while these results aren't official they do appear to be reasonably reliable so I'll report what is known to date here, and provide links to videos. With thanks to Mrs Galina Grishina for her Youtube updates, and to Nora Schuler.
Men's team competition
1 Ukraine
2 USA
3 Russia
The composition of the Russian men's team as reported on the Russian language message board was : Dimitri Gogotov, Pavel Russinyak, Daniil Kazachkov.
Women's team competition
1 Russia (Grishina, Sapronova, Stepanova (I believe Inishina was the reserve)
2 Ukraine
3 Belarus
Head judge Oksana Omelianchik distributed the medals to the winning teams ;-)
Women's all around competition
1 Anastasia Grishina, with a reported score of 59.95 (15.1, 15.3, 14.65,14.9)
2 Angelina Kislaya, UKR
3 Diana Sapronova, RUS
I don't know if the Russian bonus system operated at this competition - but, given Grishina's scores, it does seem likely. The highly touted Livichkova suffered an injury on floor so could not complete the competition, sadly.
A resource of many of the main routines, including men's, can be found at Youtube .
Anastasia Grishina has 'upgraded' the acrobatic difficulty of her work and looks fantastic on bars and beam. On floor, her work is less lyrical than before if more powerful, and she has retained the beautiful line. She has also added a double twisting Yurchenko to her battery of skills. Well, she will need to consolidate this difficulty level as she progresses to senior level and I'm guessing the floor choreography will be revamped in time for the Olympics.
