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!

    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!!

    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.

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

Watanabe campaigns for IOC President role in Russia

By
Sport is the low hanging fruit of world politics. The IOC ban on Russian athletes has kept Russian soft influence to a minimum over past years. I understand the emotion.    For example, how could Nagorny (a Russian World and Olympic champion) compete alongside Ukrainian rivals when he has openly endorsed the war, and even encouraged his Russian team mates to join up and take part in the military action? In this video  FIG President Watanabe is welcomed to Round Lake, Russia’s national training centre for gymnastics, by Russian head coach Andrei Rodionenko and the aforementioned Nikita Nagorny.    Rodionenko is a long-serving member of the international gymnastics community.    He has been head coach of Soviet, Australian, Canadian and, now, the Russian teams. Watanabe is campaigning for votes in his quest to be voted IOC President.    That’s like the Prime Minister of the UK putting himself forward as Head of NATO - it’s a big step.  ...

Correspondence, lawyer requests, decisions, resolutions, agenda ... - Actually, this story began a long time ago.  Once, German broadcaster RTL screened an interview ... with my double!   A certain woman who said that she was Olympic champion in gymnastics, Olga Kovalenk...

Tatyana Nabiyeva on work and love in China

By
Some highlights from a long interview with 2010 World champion Tatyana Nabiyeva.  Source: Russian team page on VK.com.  Translation - Google translate A big interview with Tatyana Nabieva about the peculiarities of work and life in China, the bright years of her sports career, a little about modern gymnastics and about love. On the Nabiyeva flight — At the same championship, you presented a new element on the bars, which was later added to the rules with your last name (flying over the top bar with a straight body, difficulty group F. — Sport24). How did you come up with the idea to try something new? — Actually, it happened spontaneously, I think. We worked with Vera Iosifovna [Kiryashova] on the purity of the elements on the bars, sometimes I didn’t fly all the way to the Shaposhnikova element. Once I didn’t fly all the way to the bars either and stood on my feet between the bars, bending my legs in flight for safety. Then Vera Iosifovna said that this was a different eleme...
