One of my favourite ever gymnasts. Her beam work at the Sydney Oolympics was superb. She had such clean style and perfect Russian form. She also had a great, steely competition face too – probably learnt that off Khorkina!
She was a joy to watch, and did some of the best standing Arabians on beam you’ll ever see.

Nice!! No deductions for not hitting handstand there :-)

What a gymnast! I always adored her stile. She should have got more credit for her gymnastics. Without that knee injury…
She was an awesome all-arounder and beam worker and her floor routine with the music of “Hava Nagila” was simply brilliant. I can watch it over and over again, and never get bored. Too bad that there are not much routines like this one. it would have been much more fun to watch.
