Valentina Rodionenko was outraged by Simone Biles’ victories at the World Championships
Senior coach of the Russian artistic gymnastics team Valentina Rodionenko spoke about the World Championships taking place in Antwerp. Match TV reports this.
The specialist was outraged by the victories of American Simone Biles. “This is a disgrace! What’s this? Gymnastics? It’s scary to look at her! Do you think there is some kind of aesthetics there? There’s simply nothing to see there. She doesn’t have a great performance, she has one difficulty,” Rodionenko noted.
At the World Championships, Biles won gold in the all-around and team. In addition, the American became second in the vault.
On March 4, 2022, the International Gymnastics Federation (FIG) suspended Russian athletes from international tournaments. Gymnasts were prohibited from taking part in competitions held under the auspices of the federation. Also, judges and officials from Russia are not allowed to participate.
