Seda Tutkhalyan - message for fans


Seda has posted the following message on her social media sites - 


Thank you all for your support ... Of course, not everything turned out the way I wanted it to, but still. These Olympic Games are over for me) I am reading all your comments and posts - there are so many, I won't be able to answer every single one! As it would take a very long time! Once again thank you all for such warm words 😍

I will continue to try 🙈

All LOVE ❤❤❤

Seda, you have made such a difference to the team this year - helping them to a gold medal at Europeans, and a silver medal at the Olympics.  Your progress has been amazing, and your spirit so vibrant and happy.  It is a pleasure to watch you compete, and I think you can expect much success in your future career - and the next Olympics!  

We love you and look forward to hearing news of your training, and seeing your next competition.

  1. I was so impressed with her in the team final. So many people doubted her ability to hit all 4 events in both the team qualifications and finals yet she did just that. She has so much more potential and in the following years it will be verry interesting to see how she develops

  2. I have to admit that I was one of the Russian fans that was worried that Seda would fall big time during the team event. But she hit all her routines for the team. I hope she has huge and bright future.

  3. Beyond impressed with this girl. She was one of the key gymnasts that helped Russia secure the Gold, along with Mustafina and Melnikova. Paseka and Spiridonova did great in their spots as well, but the AA gymnasts truly helped Russia.

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...

Simone and the others - results and reflections

In the end, it was as predicted : Simone and the others, with Simone's teammate, Alexandra Raisman, providing the back up.  I do not need to point out that, by definition, the Americans are scoring significantly higher marks than the rest of the field.  Congratulations to them! Aliya Mustafina finished in third place.  The 2012 bronze medalist led the competition after vault and uneven bars, but had a very nervous outing on beam that might have taken a less experienced gymnast out of the medals.  A bravura performance on floor brought Aliya back though to confirm her third place all around.  From her senior debut in 2010 to today, Mustafina has continuously set high standards of grace.    It is the first time since 2000 that a gymnast (Amanar) has medalled in the all around at two consecutive Olympics, and  if Aliya can medal on Saturday's uneven bars final, she will once again be Russia's biggest medal winner of the women's gymnastics.  Russ...

Viktoria Komova - back pain has forced me to step down

I awoke this morning to a very simple statement from Viktoria Komova, on her vk.com site, which Papa Liukin has translated (via the IG forum): 'Dear friends, fans, and gymnastics lovers. Unfortunately back pain isn't allowing me to train to my full potential and get ready for competitions. I've made the very difficult decision to stop training and take care of my health. I want to thank everyone for their support! Without your love and warmth it would've been more difficult to go all the way. Thanks everyone and see you soon! Love and kisses.' Well, first of all, good wishes and best of luck to Viktoria, who has struggled since 2012 to re-establish herself fully as a competitive gymnast, whose talent was so great that she secured gold on bars at two different World Championships, four years apart, whose career was littered with controversy, who must be allowed to live her life as she wishes.   I know that the 'gymternet' will now be overflowing...
