Rhythmic Gymnastics 2016 Discussion Thread


Recommended Posts

Greece has been on the brink of not qualifying for years now. Finland should be rewarded for the fantastic job they have done recently.

But maybe I'm asking for too much. Things have been extremely fair until now.

Just a random fact that I've just noticed: if my calculations are right, Evgenia Kanaeva was awarded the 1,000th Olympic medal in gymnastics at the 2012 edition in London.

A very sad thing happened today with our rhytmic gymnastics group. One of our Group World Champion gymnast Tsvetelina Stoyanova tried to kill herself by jumping from the 6-th floor of her appartment. Our gymnastics team travelled this morning to Spain for the European Championships, but surprisingly Stoyanova wasn't on the team and a reserve went in her place. The head coach said that she had a leg injury for some time now and it worsened after the World Cup round in Spain. But the media have said that Stoyanova has had anxiety issues for some time now and maybe their is some inside thing that isn't known yet. Relatieves of Stoyanova have said now that she was very upset last night after the news that she wasn't going with the team, while others say that she voluntarily didn't want to go. No one knows what is the real situation. She is still in critical condition. A truly sad, sad thing.:(

So, now Israel is a strong contender for an Olympic medal, and I can't say I'm surprised. They have been very consistent for a number of years now, and they seem to be in their best shape ever, so it will not be a surprise if the group earns an Olympic medal.

I'm surprised Russia had two mistake-laden routines. I wonder if Belarus can take advantage of eventual mistakes and finally earn an Olympic gold medal. Time will tell.

And what sad news about the Bulgarian girl. I'm happy they got a medal, though. And I hope the girl survives.

Well, Israel have a good exercise, it's right, but we must considarate that when you compete in your own country the jury will add to you some decimals of point.

I'm almost sure that Italy, Ukraine and Russia will not make a mistake and that the competition will be more interessing

I don't think Ukraine has a chance of getting a medal at the group event, but we will see. Right now, I would say Russia, Belarus, Israel, Italy and Spain will fight for a place on the podium and Bulgaria is a dark horse. Ukraine and Japan will likely make the finals, but a medal is a bit too much at this point.

So, I am now focused on finding results from all of the World Cup events since 1983. It is really hard to find results prior to 2008; this is why I need help, any help, finding these results. Basically, what I want to know is which countries managed to win at least a bronze medal at one of the stages of the World Cup series since 1983. It might look like a lot, but so far I have been able to identify only 26 countries: 
 

 

I might be missing a few. This is why I'll ask for help. I believe Slovenia, Slovakia, Yugoslavia, Czechoslovakia, Czech Republic, Austria, Hungary, East Germany and West Germany are the only serious candidates to join this list, to be honest. But I have not been able to confirm any medal results from these nations from 1983 to 2007 at the Rhythmic Gymnastics World Cup Series. Can anyone help, please?

    • One has already been approved under the new rules. 
    • There is a transgender volleyball player here in Brazil; there was even a recent controversy (this year) when a city banned her from playing in a certain competition, which ended up in court, ultimately in her favor.   But the situation is much simpler than that; the reason for this decision is because of the two female boxers who won at Paris 2024 (who apparently are not transgender).

    • there were rumors about it for quite a while, but as I wrote, it was never confirmed so, it might well be just some haters throwing out some shit on her 🤷
    • Where did you get that?   I'm not sure I would have considered her to have dissapeared from out of nowhere, at least since after Tokyo... she did win medals at the next two World Championships. I think it's just recently, she's been struggling with injury which is why she's completely out of form... 
    • Even though I'm not the biggest fan of her, always sucks to see a career ending through injury and not on your own terms 
    • This is going to have an effect on very likely 0 athletes, possibly 1 or 2 we don't really know about yet. It's really mostly the cheapest possible way for them to make a sort of political statement, without having any significant backlash since it won't really affect anyone at the top level of international sports.   Edit: worded a bit wrong, I was thrown off by everywhere 'trans women' being mentioned as the target of this. Of course there is also the somewhat larger category of DSD and the likes, which will certainly affect a few athletes - unfortunately they are often thrown under the bus or mentioned as 'not really women anyway' or something like that, despite, you know, being.
    • Mary Rand has died aged 86. The first British woman to win a Gold in track and field at the 1964 Tokyo Games (where she also took home a further two medals in the Women’s 4x100m relay and Pentathlon).
    • Athing Mu competed in the USA trials in 2024 and 2025 post the 2023 rule changes. She also won Gold in 2022 and Bronze in 2023.    Jelimo the jury is out. She doesn’t look male like the other two do.   
    • People focus on trans people because it's easier to pinpoint the affected athletes. Meanwhile it's the athletes with (suspected) DSDs that will have tougher time to convince the authorities and the public opinion that they belong to women's sports.
