Anastasia Grishina to miss Russian Nationals due to injury


Dolly-Z has provided the following news from her blog : http://dolly-z.tumblr.com/post/112496835068/anastasia-grishina-will-miss-2015-russian - 


'Anastasia Grishina will miss 2015 Russian Nationals due to the knee injury.

Nastia injured her knee again, right before the Nationals.
It happened on practice last week (end of the February) while she was doing vault.
She was doing Double twisting Yurchenko, but underrotated the second twist and hurt the same knee she’d hurt last year. Doctors said there is nothing really serious. She luckily didn’t break any bone and didn’t tore anything! But she’ll have to miss Nationals.

So sad to hear it. She was in a good shape. It took her a year to recover from her last injury she got in April 2014. And now such a disappointing moment again :( But she will be ok!

Let’s wish her a speedy recovery! Stay strong, Nastia! ❤'


It is only early in the season, so there is plenty of time for Nastia to recover and perhaps gain eligibility for competitions later in the year - the Universiade, for example.  Nastia is mature and philosophical about her injury.  She said :  "We don't play chess. You need always to be prepared for that".


Good luck, Nastia!  RRG and friends wishes you the very best for a speedy recovery!

  1. I feel so bad for Anastasia! She cannot seem to catch a break. Still, I'm glad it doesn't sound too serious. Best wishes to her!!

  2. I was so excited to see her back but I gotta say I am not surprised. I expect a couple more athletes to be out due to "Injury" from the list that was announced earlier like always.

  3. This is devastating news. I'm glad it's nothing serious and I hope we'll see her at Worlds later in the year.

Who really won the WAG All Around?

You will find a link to the FIG's newly published book of results at the Olympic Games here .  This year, they have broken down the judge's execution scores so you can see exactly how each judge evaluated the gymnasts' performances.  It makes for interesting reading - if only I had more time to analyse each judge's marking.  A skim reading already highlights multiple inconsistencies in individual judges' marks and makes you wonder why they bother with the jury at all. I have taken the time to look at the reference judges' scores for the top four in the women's all around.  The FIG explains here what their role is, and how they are selected.  I even used my calculator, which is a risky thing in my hands.  My, how I wish we could have seen a similar document for the Tokyo World Championships. I wonder if anyone can explain how, if the FIG's Code of Points is so objective and fair, it is possible to come up with two different results using two differ...

Remembering last summer - Nelli Kim, her judges and Viktoria Komova

In view of Nelli Kim's recent interview , Lupita and I thought it timely to revisit the performance of some of the WTC President's judges over past competitions ... this article from 27th August 2012 is reposted here, as a reminder.

Aliya Mustafina - 'I'm just trying to stay healthy'

A brief interview with the World and Olympic Champion from All Sport is summarised below. Russian national gymnastics continues to prepare for the World Championships, which will be held October 3-12 in Nanning (China). Olympic champion Aliya Mustafina told Mary Staroverova about her health and about preparations for the competition. - In June, I went to Germany to solve the problem with my ankle.  I had a small operation to clean the joints of a build-up of bone particles.  Nothing serious was evident, and the operation went well.  Now I have to tumble.  But there is still some discomfort, a slight pain at full load, and I can not tumble at full force.  For the time being, I try to go easy on my legs.  After the Russia Cup I will have to fully prepare for Worlds. That is just one month.   Even if I'm not tumbling, I will keep myself in good shape, and that should suffice (smiles). - I can't say if it is a different pain to before Europeans, because at...
