Euros interview.

MΓ©lanie warmed-up all apparatus, I believe, in podium.

The reigning European all-around champion heads to Basel with new goals: “It’s not my title that I’m defending, it’s really to prepare for the Olympics.”

β€œYes, I won the title of European all-around champion, but this time, my preparation is different than what I was used to doing. I am taking another path,” she said, confirming her plans to only compete on the uneven bars.
