Kaylia Nemour – Vault & Bars

With YDT on Vault, Kaylia moves into the top group of women who could win an AA medal.

R.I.P. Alexander Dityatin

Alexander Dityatin won 8 medals at the boycotted 1980 Summer Olympics, setting the record for achieving the most medals of any type at a single Olympic Games to that time.

He died in October 2025. Age-68.

I’m shocked how many elite Russian gymnasts die young.

Is it the Vodka? Is it poor health care?
