@crazy4LATIN She is actually 170 cm (5ft 8 inches) and 48 kilos;) Which is 7 stones 7 lbs. Which is very thin, but not overly so. You dont see many fat rhythmic gymnasts do you? ;)

@sofia2380630 ???I don't speak spanish

[sofia2380630]

It is noted that there was perhaps a little preference for Evgenia that deserved the gold this time Anna;))

@Missnewyork28 Fue por que anna se lo merecia no por que evgenia haya sido calificada mas severamente

Also, if you break down all of they're difficulty, more often than not, the start value is pretty much the same, maybe a .1 difference. Even though i love genia, this was not her best performance, a little nervous maybe. Had a sloppy pivot and promenade. While Anna was very strong in her performance. There are times when Genia deserves to win, but this and the ribbon were not one of them :(. At least we're no longer in Kapranova days where that girl hardly ever deserved to be on the podium.

@ptboy18LOL!! No she doesnt; Julietta is good, but she is not in the same league as Kanaeva. Evgenia is like a ballerina, her lines are absolutely beautiful. To compare Julietta to her is ridiculous and irrelevant.

@ogredan100 the artistic panel. It's a very unclear section in the COP and judges can appreciate it the way they want, or should I say, the way Viner wants. Between the two, Besso is the most artistc, she has a better musicality, dance training, she adds more drama in her routine. I love Zhenya, don't get me wrong, she is one of my fav and I love this ribbon routine but that gold was not deserved. truly.

[Missnewyork28]

@ogredan100 And I'm not even a judge. You can also take a deduction for her low releve on plenty of her pivots which should be 0.1 every time. Every pivot has to be done on a high relevé (like Bessonova). So again, it's about 0.2 or 0.3 that judges should have taken away from her score. So, yes her execution score is too high compared to what it should have been. Plus, like I said, her diffuculty doesn't matter since Bessonova got the SAME SCORE. The difference came from

[Missnewyork28]

@ogredan100 Except that if you check the scores, you'll see that both Besso and Kanaeva got 9 in difficulty and 9.4 in execution. There is no way Kanaeva should have had 9.4 in execution because as it is said in the COP, judges should have taken 0.3 (at least) when her leg grabbed the ribbon. Plus 0.1 when she walked on the ribbon. It's already 0.4 on 0.6 of deduction. Plus, she fell on her first pivot ( a little bit) which should be 0.1. So it makes already 0.5.

[ogredan100]

@Missnewyork28 "severely" what the hell are you talking about? her execution wasn't perfect like it normally is, but it was certainly good. and her routine is so much more difficult than Bessonova's is, plus it was more artistic. and did you not watched Bessonova's routine? because if you did you will see that she loses balance at least four times in the routine.

[Missnewyork28]

@SONSUJIN That does not make any sense. For the record, Kanaeva overdge Besso in artistry. Their execution score and difficulty were identical. And Kanaeva mistakes and her forms on some elements should have been deducted more severely leading to Bessonova's win. So why don't you follow your advice and learn more about RG ?
