First final: Junior all-around final
Today the 24 best junior women compete for the individual all-around title. In wednesdays qualifications the Russian women topped the ranking, though the Romanian and Brittish gymnasts came close . Who will confirm her score? Who will cope best with the stress?
Again this year, the Russian domination seems to continue. Angelina Melnikova lead the qualifications with 56,699. She is the current Russian champion, what's an impressive fact - she's only a first-year junior. Close behind her comes countrymate Seda Tutkhalyan (56,332). It’s looking forward to their vaults and uneven bars exercises, where they already had stunning performances!
The rise of the British gymnastics is now also clearly remarkable in the junior category. Wednesday they became the silver medallist in the team final, today they have two outstanding gymnasts in the all-around final. Both of them had some minor mistakes on beam and uneven bars, but were outstanding on floor and vault. Look forward to Elissa Downie (54,941) and Catherine Lyons (54,932) with the wondering how active the public will be today!
According tradition, also Romania has good gymnasts, Laura Jurca (55,641) and Andreea Iridon (53,965) both defend the Romanian colors. In their slipstream, also Tabia Alt (GER - 54,866) and Loan His (FRA - 54,499) ended up close. What do they do today? Can they step up some places?
