Congratulations to Martina Rizzelli who excellently represented Italy.
Moreover, it was great to see the Downie sisters together in one final!
Ecco l'analisi di tutte le performance:
1. Daria Spiridonova (RUS) - Gold
Huge difficulty, elegance, grace, precision, tecnique, rhythm: this routine was almost flawless. Daria confirms her status of best Russian bar worker at the moment.

2. Rebecca Downie (GBR) - Silver
Huge difficulty also for Becky Downie. The execution was great, despite the hesitation before the dismount. However, she managed to get a well deserved silver medal.

3. Sanne Wevers (NED) - Bronze
What a surprise! Gym fans all over the world love Sanne for her elegance on beam, but no one would ever expect her to medal on bars. A beautiful execution valued 8.6 was bronze medal worth despite the relatively low difficulty. Congratulations!

4. Elissa Downie (GBR)
Nice rythm and execution for baby Downie, but some imprecisions didn't let her get the bronze.

5. Martina Rizzelli (ITA)
Great job Martina! She proved her talent to everyone who criticized her last year. She seems to have finally found the right consistency on her favourite apparatus. These Championships were a great experience for her. I'm sure she is more confident now and will be again on the Italian team!

6. Giulia Steingruber (SUI)
Giulia managed to conquer an event final on her worst apparatus! This is the proof she is in great shape right now. She had some form breaks but it's a good routine for her overall.

7. Maria Kharenkova (RUS)
She was the favourite for the bronze, but she fell. What a pity: bars didn't use to be her best apparatus, but she's been showing many improvements lately.

8. Loan His (FRA)
The home pet tried so hard to not fall, but at the end nerves won. Her determination was admirable, though.
