Following her successes at this year's Spartakiade and Youth Olympics, Russian junior star Evgeniya Shelgunova recorded a good result at the Top Gym tournament in Belgium. Results can be found on IG.
Shelgunova will be eligible to compete at senior level in 2013. You could read a brief biography and summary of an interview with her here.
She is a very dynamic gymnast who seems pretty fearless.

Evgeniya's team mate in Charleroi was Yulia Chemaryova, who scored best on bars. Chemaryova is coached by Maria Nazarova, alongside World Floor Champion Ksenia Afanasyeva and 2010 world team member Ksenia Semenova.

A.Sidorova Fan has commented on Shelgunova's loud voice - she can be heard here supporting her friend!

Apparently she has a D value of 5.5.
I have to say, though, I do not like the trend towards broken music mixes which is becoming common amongst the Russian girls at present. Shelgunova's gymnastics is more precise than inspiring at present - and very influenced by the American 'style' on floor - which is in fact very lacking in style - very focussed on the requirements of the Code, I suppose. I guess she has time to improve before she turns senior.
