Valeri Liukin replaces Martha Karolyi
As expected. Congratulations Valeri.
“We are at the highest level there is,” said Liukin. “It’s not going to be easy – it shouldn’t be – but I have been a part of this team for many years in one way or another. I have been at The Ranch since 1999 and have coached several generations of national team members. I know the drill. I grew up in that system as a gymnast, and I’ve raised my athletes in that same system, too.” …
Valeri will oversee his first national team camp at the Karolyi Ranch in Texas starting Sept. 28. While Nastia said that many of the athletes will have to get used to seeing a new face in charge at camp, Valeri said it will be business as usual as the 2020 quad officially kicks off. …
Elena Davydova interview
Davydova, owner and head coach of the renowned gymnastics club in Oshawa, recently returned from her third trip to an Olympic Games for the sport, this time in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
That in itself is not unprecedented, but what may be is the fact she’s now gone in three entirely different capacities: as an athlete at the Moscow 1980 Games, where she won the overall gold medal while representing the Soviet Union; as a coach for the London 2012 Games, where she helped the Canadian women’s team to an historic fifth-place finish; and now as judge in 2016. …
Oshawa’s Elena Davydova an Olympian in every sense of the word
Elena is currently in Bolivia. She has two girls at the PanAm meet. And may be judging, as well. 🙂
She’s running for FIG WTC in the upcoming election to be held in Tokyo. I’d vote for her.
