Oh and oh and oh.  There are some gorgeous pictures on the RGF site.  Time for another gallery soon, I think - I can see I have my work cut out!

All hail Queen Mustafina!!  Good luck to all the girls and boys as they progress through this competition and with their preparations for the Olympics.

This afternoon, we have the men's all around.  It doesn't look as though live streaming is going to happen, sadly, but at least we have Nora's on the spot accounts to look forward to.

  1. Thanks for the link to the pictures, I had seen the men pictures earlier but the women weren't up as yet and now they are.

    Those are not good scores for Nabieva, especially since she is only doing 2 events. Her form when she is doing vaults will hurt the team. I don't really want her on the team, she can be an alternate if anything.

    It seems they are marking them harshy and I like that. This will help them to improve whatever they are doing wrong so that those international judges won't have any reason to take off points. Damn at Komova's bar score, I read she has some upgrades. So I think both her and Mustafina will have the same bars SV or who knows, maybe Musty upgrades more if she wants.

    Would love to know the DV/SV for everyone on their appartuses but I guess Russia will keep that top secret for now.

  2. Do you think Nora can video some of the routines or do you know if they are going to be put up somewhere?

  3. I believe Viktoria Komova is the new Russian Cup Champion! YAY! Aliya Mustafina came second. Haven't seen any scores yet but I hope this gives Vika a much-needed confidence boost for London!

Svetlana Boginskaya: I was always a bitch* in gymnastics

Svetlana Boginskaya, 15 years old, with her medals from the Seoul Olympics Nico translates the latest interview with gymnastics legend Svetlana Boginskaya, during a recent visit to her home country of Belarus. Svetlana Boginskaya: I was always a bitch* in gymnastics, so now I ask for forgiveness from everyone who came in contact with me. The National Olympic Committee of Belarus held a press conference with three-time Olympic Champion in artistic gymnastics, Svetlana Boginskaya. The meeting was devoted to the 25th anniversary of the Olympic Games in Seoul. In South Korea the Belarussian won two gold medals in the team competition and vault.

Aliya Mustafina - 'each medal is very special'

'I'm very happy that everything turned out well today  ... Each medal is very special.  The UK team made mistakes, so there was a wide margin [of victory]... But naturally, [what I did] is not enough for the Olympics.  I prepared well for beam and bars but I am not ready for floor, I stepped up to help the team. ... To be honest, I did not look at the scores [when asked how the team reacted to the 6.5 gap before the final apparatus].  Gelya (Melnikova) is a good girl, she did everything and did not falter ... Seda fell on quite a complex element.  There is more work to do, but everything else went well.' [About a protest taken by the coaches on her beam score]. 'I am used to my protests being rejected, everything is normal!' Via vk.com I n other news , the UEG has confirmed that Spiridonova will replace Melnikova in tomorrow's bars final. No reason is given, but it is generally considered that Dasha has a better chance of gold.  This decision also means tha...

Review of Russian WAG at the 2014 World Championships

The Russians during a team talk in training for the World Championships.  Courtesy RGF Bronze all the way for Russia then.  Beyond the euphoria and surprise of this morning's competition there doesn't really seem to be much to write home about. I am delighted for Aliya personally that the efforts she has made to help the team have provided her with some tangible result, but the principal feeling at the end of the competition is that of relief.  As Vaitsekhovskaya said in her article last week, there were no moments of shock and awe from the Russians, and that's what will be needed if they are to compete for gold medals in Rio (translation available here ). Let's consider a timeline of the competition : before, during and after. BEFORE The promise of a return to the Worlds stage by Viktoria Komova gave Russia a feeling of optimism pre-Russia Cup.  However, Viktoria's performance at this important competition gave little reason for celebra...
