Russia's charming young gymnasts, Maria Bondareva, Anastasia Dmitrieva, Polina Spirina and Ekaterina Sokova, knocked out the rest of the competition with their artistry in Montreal this weekend. Bondareva and Dmitrieva shared the all around title. The team beat Canada and Japan by a narrow margin.
These girls are not yet performing work of outstanding difficulty, but it is a pleasure to watch their gymnastics, particularly Bondareva on beam who has such confidence and authority. You can find top five AA results below, full results are available at Gymnix International - team results link is not working properly at the moment but you may find them later. There is a start list for today's event finals - Bondareva and Dmitrieva are qualified to vault, bars and beam, with Bondareva appearing on floor with Sokolova. Good luck girls, and well done so far!
There is a Youtube channel (thanks Lisa!) with good videos of the Russians' routines for you to enjoy.
