Alongside Nikita Simonov, other members of our national team also competed:

  • Murad Agharzayev (floor exercise),
  • Mansum Safarov (floor exercise & horizontal bar),
  • Ivan Tikhonov (pommel horse, parallel bars & horizontal bar),

In women’s artistic gymnastics, our athlete Nazanin Teymurova successfully qualified for the finals in two events. She scored 12.666 points on vault and 12.700 points on balance beam, finishing 8th in both programs.

Congratulations to Nikita Simonov on his remarkable achievement!
