Juniors RF might perform better as a team at the European Championship, but failed the jump - Bulgakov | Gymnastics | R-Sport. All major sports news
BERN, June 1 - R-Sport, Sergei Smyshlyaev. Russian juniors, who won gold at the European Championships in artistic gymnastics in 2016 in the team competition, could show even better scores, but before the last shell - vault - affected a certain euphoria, he said the agency "F-Sport" senior coach of the Russian junior team Olga Bulgakov.

Women's European Championships kicked off in Berne, Switzerland on 1 June skill in the junior, the results of which have been played, and also medals in the team competition. Russians on the basis of performances in the four shells scored 168.179 points (43,000 points on the uneven bars, balance beam at 42.715 points, 41.299 points in the floor exercise and 41.165 in the vault). Second place went to the team of Great Britain (163.912), bronze in Romania team (163.678).

"The end was not very nice, has left its mark bad - said Bulgakov -. Are satisfied that the girls were in the competition of such a high level for the first time, and to the last shell kept very well on the last shell, maybe this euphoria affected .... in boys, the same problem occurred. But it is good that we had stock, so all grow together. "

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...

Aliya Mustafina - 'I'm just trying to stay healthy'

A brief interview with the World and Olympic Champion from All Sport is summarised below. Russian national gymnastics continues to prepare for the World Championships, which will be held October 3-12 in Nanning (China). Olympic champion Aliya Mustafina told Mary Staroverova about her health and about preparations for the competition. - In June, I went to Germany to solve the problem with my ankle.  I had a small operation to clean the joints of a build-up of bone particles.  Nothing serious was evident, and the operation went well.  Now I have to tumble.  But there is still some discomfort, a slight pain at full load, and I can not tumble at full force.  For the time being, I try to go easy on my legs.  After the Russia Cup I will have to fully prepare for Worlds. That is just one month.   Even if I'm not tumbling, I will keep myself in good shape, and that should suffice (smiles). - I can't say if it is a different pain to before Europeans, because at...

Komova should have won!

It was a very tight battle in the North Greenwich arena today, with American Gabby Douglas beating out Viktoria Komova by a mere 0.259 points (see results below) and the legendary Aliya Mustafina sealing her comeback from that career-threatening injury with a well deserved bronze medal. Yes, she suffered a fall from beam after her Arabian somersault but elsewhere she was at her best, a real endorsement of the work of the Russian coaches in nursing her back to almost-top form since that fateful day in 2011. Komova had a faultless competition apart from a step on landing her Amanar vault. Frankly, she must feel utterly shattered after coming second once again by a very small margin to an American who was treated very generously by the judges. Komova soared and took every beam move to the max, rounding off with her rare double Arabian dismount in fine style; Douglas literally sidled along the beam, seeming frightened to take her feet off the apparatus for all but her somersaults. Kom...
