By
BBC radio just announced that Russian artistic gymnastics team has been officially cleared to compete in Rio!  #cleanrussianathletes #IOC #WADA

Later - breaking news

Valentina Rodionenko alert ...
1. Maria Paseka's back injury is troubling - her participation will only be decided after a doctor's check up on 3 August
2. Angelina Melnikova has injured her hamstring and will be competing watered down routines
3. Extra care had to be taken in proving Natalia Kapitonova's doping record for the Games.  The young gymnast hasn't competed much abroad, so it took time to gather the necessary evidence.

By
From sport.ru via vk.com.  Google translate  A big interview with Anastasia Loginova from Sport24 with Lyudmila Roshchina following the Strongest Cup, where the gymnast won four out of five gold medals. We quote several fragments, the full version is available on the publication's website, link at the end. ❓ The Strongest Athletes Cup has recently ended.

Only that I needed to do my program - and then what will happen. ❓ Did you have time to discuss the competition with your coach? 💬 She praised me, said that I was great.
