BAKU, June 20. / Special. corr. TASS Albert Starodubtsev, Veronica Sovetova /. None of the Russian participants of the tournament in gymnastics at the European Games in Baku does not guarantee a place in the national team at the October World Championships in Glasgow. This was stated by head coach TASS Russian gymnastics Andrew Rodionenko.

Russian gymnasts at the Olympic Games in Baku won four gold, four silver and three bronze awards. The Russians had no equal in the men's and women's team competitions. The main heroine of the competition was the 2012 Olympic champion Aliya Mustafina, which in addition to gold in the team tournament also won the award the highest dignity in the individual all-round and in the exercise on the parallel bars. The assets of the gymnasts have also silver in floor exercise. The vault was the winner of the silver award young Seda Toutkhalian that only the first season in favor of the senior team.

With four awards Baku-2015 will return home another debutant team of Russia Nikita Ignatyev, who was second in the exercise on the rings, and the third - in the individual all-around and on the bar. David Bielawski won the silver medal in the Uneven Bars, and "Bronze" - the floor exercise.

"I would not attach this start in Baku some special significance - said Rodionenko. - Yes, we came here to fight for the first places. But this tournament is an intermediate before the World Cup in Glasgow, and none of the medalists of Baku is not yet guaranteed a place in the national team in the main competition of the season. "

The coach said that the leaders of the women's national team perennial Russian Mustafina and Viktoria Komova for a long time to heal their injuries, had to get in shape, and believes that these athletes will continue to progress. According to the interlocutor TASS, solidly made in Baku and young Ignatiev. "He is growing professionally, conscientiously work in training. Let's see how he will develop business further ", - he continued the coach.

Games for medals in the individual exercises there was a fierce fight, the referee was very difficult to identify the strongest in every form. According to many experts, performances Aliya Mustafina in the floor exercise and uneven bars Beliavsky David were worth more than silver medals. "I have no claims to the arbitrators - said Rodionenko. - They work as they can. And artists need to work as they are able. Find the causes of failures in the judges - to show their own weakness. "

Immediately after the end of the gymnastic tournament in Baku, Russian athletes will go for the next training camp.

Russia Cup - the road to Nanning!

The Russian MAG and WAG teams take their preparation for World Championships in Nanning one step further this week, as key players compete in the annual Russia Cup in Penza.  There will be team, all around and event finals. The WAG team Last year the gymnasts were rather depleted and suffering the effects of injury; this year the national squad is still short of some of its top members, but has greater diversity and experience up and coming into the ranks, so it will be an interesting time.  Last year saw St Petersburg gymnast and fan favourite Tatiana Nabiyeva lead the all around, ahead of Alla Sosnitskaya, Anna Pavlova, Anna Rodionova, Ekaterina Kramarenko and Polina Fyodorova.  With the individual-only World Championships up coming in Antwerp, I remember writing that Russia might well decide to send a team of only three gymnasts, such was the paucity of available talent.  The final reckoning saw Russia fare a little better than this, although performance ...

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...

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. 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.  M...
