Central beat Moscow again - MAG team finals, Russian Championships

Graceful David Belyavski has been Russia's leading AAer at these championships.

Central beat Moscow (a close result again - 259.95/259.6) ... in today's MAG competition. Find the full results here.

Kuksenkov, competing for the gold medal winning team, managed a 15.25 on pommel horse and a 15 on parallel bars - I think these scores could add something to Russia's team totals in international competition.

Garibov achieved a 15.1 on p bars and a 15.55 on high bar, with Ablyazin achieving in the 15s on all three pieces he competed.

Belyavski is thus looking the strongest - perhaps the only - all around in the senior national field at this competition - are Russia steering their men's team towards specialists?

Go Tribe has transliterated the results in full.

There are some lovely photographs at the RGF website, where you will find the image of Belyavski above.
