WAG 2012 full results (senior)

You can find a link to PDF files of the results of the competition here.  But here are images of the most important Russian results - and you will find juniors on an earlier post.

We also have LaVoix555 to thank for videos of the BBC's live coverage of team finals: Part 1 and Part 2.

Still haven't found Part 3 with that amazing bar routine from Mustafina, though ...

A disaster for the Russians, particularly on floor where they ended up without an individual representative in the event final.  The further significance of this finish is that the Russians had to start on beam in the team final.

A shaky start on beam handicapped Russia, who never caught up with their confident and energetic rivals from Romania.


Big girls win vault these days.  Grishina's execution is better than the scores show.

Sergei Starkin - 'My job is to bring Aliya back to the best in the world'

Sergei Starkin, then coach to Denis Ablyazin and now coach to both Denis and Aliya Mustafina, at the 2012 Olympics.  Courtesy of the RGF The latest news, that Aliya Mustafina now has a personal coach - not just a personal coach, one of Russia's best coaches, Sergei Starkin - was only released yesterday.  Since then we have heard from Vladimir Zaglada on the implications of this change - and now Sergei Starkin himself has spoken to Natalia Kalugina.  The following English language summary of the article is as close as I can get to the original, though please be aware that I will have to paraphrase where the translation isn't clear; this is not a word for word translation. Back in early December, when Aliya Mustafina turned to Sergei Starkin and asked him to work with her, there was talk about why a men's coach should work in the women's sport.   This is despite the fact that Starkin began his professional life as a women's coach.  His best known gymnast
