Our delegation are a bit surprised there no chairs nor tables in the rooms though  You not use tables in Italy ? 

 

sure!

in every Italian bedroom you normally have every kind of table, chairs, furniture, tv screen 

to me, this really look an unfinished room, you normally don't see such a sad place even when you buy a new house

Sitting in a halls of residence right now, I’m jealous, I’m sure my uni would try to charge £200 a week for something like this.

@Book@GrassmarketYeah, compulsory figures. Denise Biellmann finishing out of medals in 1980 OG despite 1st in FS and 2nd in SP is probably the most known instance of CF negative impact.

Although she did win bronze, I would add 1972 OG - Janet Lynn 4th in figures, 1st in FS.  Trixi Schuba,  1st in figures, 7th in FS.

 

And another one to add - 1984 Brian Orser  7-1-1.  Scott Hamilton 1-2-2.

Back in the 1970s, in the USA, it was called “Modern Rhythmic Gymnastics”

 

Coming back to edit this, since the sport was miniscule in the USA at that time, it’s probably how the FIG referred to it as well.
