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.

    I am hoping, wishing and praying to God for Rio to be the last time I see or hear the names Valentina and/or Rodionenko. Enough disasters!

    This is extremly scary,we must all keep the entire team in our prayers. Also, is it just me or is the entire national team so fragile these days?

    Aliya says that even though they are not very much seen in the Olympic village for training, but she likes everything . In the village everything is convenient and comfortable. Ablazin says that how well they are prepared will be clear after qualifying in terms of medals. Starkin calls main rivals the USA, China and Japan. Alfosov says it will be very interesting to see different gymnastic schools(Europe and Asia and America)
