Today, June 14, at the first European Games in Baku (Azerbaijan) started gymnastics tournament. The men were held qualifying competitions in the floor exercise, in the rings and on horseback.

The impressions Nikita Ignatyev shared with special correspondent of the press service DSP Mark Skoda. Agency of the sports information "All Sport" quoted Nikita Ignatyev.

- In general, I am satisfied with the first day of the competition - said Nikita Ignatyev. - Although there were unforeseen troubles. For example, on the floor exercise, I did everything well and was happy, but then out of the blue made a serious mistake - not able to get into the rack, and had to start all over again. I rented it for a lot of points. It is an optional deduction, because of which in this form I can not get into the finals.

- And how were on rings and on horseback?
- The ring has the ability to go to the finals. The horse - not my final round, but I liked it, I carried it out. In general, in the floor I do not pass, but it was David Bielawski. On rings, likely he passed, and on horseback gave credit for the team tournament. I want to say that these games - a very interesting tournament, the first of its kind. The qualification is divided into two days - three rounds each, usually we do all six in one day. I think the scheme of European games easier and more comfortable for the athletes. I like that. I hope that tomorrow will perform worse.

Started having problems with the preservation of balance, I spent a lot of strength to resist, but in the end the combination of them still do not have - I fell before the dismount. Then he went to the projectile and did it again, but of course, that I was given one point deductions. However, Nikita Ignatyev David Bielawski worked great. On the floor exercise and rings, I gave two offset in the team tournament, which are the two best scores from the three countries. Although, of course, I had to do it in the horse.

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

By
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...
