Russia Cup, Penza - MAG updates - Golotsutskov out

The Russia Cup begins today with the men's team competition and qualifications for all around and event finals.  It all should be over by around 6 pm Penza time.

Russian star Anton Golotsutskov is out of the Russia Cup - but hopes still to be in contention for the Olympics.  Picture courtesy of the RGF.

Latest news is that Olympic medalist, vault and floor specialist Anton Golotsutskov is out of the competition because of back pain.  This does not rule him out of Olympic contention.

Maxim Devyatovski (former European Champion (2007),Russian champion (2008), and Russian team member at many international competitions) will compete independently at the Russia Cup and if he achieves good results will be in contention for a place on the Olympic training squad, said national team coach Valery Alfosov.

David Belyavski, a Russian hope for the all around in London, is suffering with a pinched nerve in his shoulder.

I am constantly scouring the internet for news and evidence of online streaming - but have found nothing so far.   Rest assured I will post anything I find as soon as I possibly can, but can't always find everything - I am always very grateful for prompts which you can leave for me as comments.
