Russian World Team Announced

Russia has announced it's team for the World Gymnastics Championships in October. It includes A good smattering of all-arounders and a mix of 'youngsters' and 'veterans' (if you can say that about 16-19 year olds!)

Russia clearly has confidence that Viktoria Komova will be ready to give Jordyn Wieber a run for her money for the all-around crown.

Russian World Team 
Viktoria Komova
Ksenia Afansyeva
Anna Dementyeva
Yulia Belokobylskaya
Tatiana Nabieva (VT and UB)
Maria Paeska (VT & FX)

Alternates - Yulia Ishina & Alyona Polyan

Hopefully other teams will follow on soon. With GB and Romania facing off on Onesti this week it shouldn't be too long until they pick their team too.
