Uzbek gymnast, absolute record holder by the number of Olympics she participated in, Olympic champion Oksana Chusovitina, who won another championship at today's FIG World Cup in Artistic Gymnastics in Baku, said in an interview with Vestnik Kavkaza that she was satisfied with her result.
"I'm satisfied with how I performed. The competition was tough, so I'm happy that I won. I prepared for this tournament. I didn't show all my difficult jumps this time, so the result is even more pleasant," she said.
