Tanya Nabieva wins all around competition at Tournoi d'Arques :-)))

By
Tanya also led the Russian team to victory in this competition which featured gymnasts from 13 countries.  There was a live stream yesterday which was rather difficult to follow as no scores were given out and full routines were not always covered - the apparatus finals will also be free to view this afternoon from 2.30 pm Central European Time (ie in Britain this means 1.30pm).  Tanya was accompanied by her personal coach, Alexander Kiryashov of St Petersburg.

I do not have the full statistics to hand as yet, but WenShuli at the All Around Forum confirms the rankings, via the French gymnastics board:


Team competition :
1. Russia (Nabieva /Cheong)
2. Belgium
3. Great Britain
4. Switzerland
5. Russia

Juniors :
1. Terri Grand'ry BEL
2. Chiara Gandolfi ITA
3. Johanna Dejardin BEL
4. GBR (I think this was Billy McKenzie)
5. GBR

Seniors:
1. Tatiana Nabieva RUS
2. Zhang Yelinzi CHN
3. Ekaterina Krilova RUS
4. Olga Zemskova RUS
5. AUT

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 lacked depth and re
