17th Asian Games 2014, Incheon, Korea

 Chinese Olympic star Zou Kai ended his country's wait for a men's gymnastics gold at the Incheon Asian Games on Wednesday with a world class floor routine performance.
China, the traditional powerhouse in Asian gymnastics, have made a poor start in the men's division, slipping to third in the team competition and not even making the podium in the individual all-round event.

There was gold for North Korea in the women's vault as Hong Un-Jong turned in a dazzling pair of runs to beat Uzbek veteran Oksana Chusovitina into second in a rerun of the 2008 Olympic final.

Japan's Masayoshi Yamamoto took gold on the pommel horse, ahead of Uzbek teenager Abdulla Azimov.

17 Asian Games – China titles women’s team gymnastics artistic.


 
Women gymnasts of China delivered a performance of ruthless elegance to storm to a crushing victory in the Asian Games team event Monday, as North Korea pipped Japan to silver.

A day after a patchy performance saw the Chinese men's team beaten into third place, the women dominated their opponents at Incheon's Namdong Gymnasium.

The Chinese gymnasts also filled the top three spots in the floor routine and the top five in the uneven bars, where Yao Jinnan beat world champion Huang Huidan into second with a giddying high-difficulty routine.

17 Asian Games, Incheon - Japan take men`s team gymnastics gold

Japan saw off favourites China and hosts South Korea to claim the men's team gymnastics gold at the Asian Games on Sunday. The Japanese were not at full strength but a fine performance led by Yuya Kamoto, the 2010 Youth Olympics individual all-round champion, saw them to top spot.

Beijing`s golden boy Zou Kai outshone in the floor routine by an unfancied outsider.
The Chinese, who have dominated Asian Games gymnastics, with 123 golds out of a possible 175 since the event was introduced in 1974, were beaten into third by South Korea, let down by a patchy performance across the six disciplines.
The hosts had been targeting gold in the team event, hoping Olympic champion Yang Hak-Seon would vault them to victory.
But a hamstring injury suffered this week meant the 21-year-old was unable to perform his gravity-defying triple aerial twist "Yang 1" dismount.
Forced to perform an easier vault, he came up just short of North Korea`s Ri Se-Gwang despite comfortably outscoring his rival in the execution marks.
Japan, silver medallists behind China at the 2012 Olympics but without a single member of that team present, were impressive in their consistency and showed real class on the pommel and high bar.
The biggest surprise came on the floor as five-time Olympic gold medallist Zou was outdone by 23-year-old Shotaro Shirai, competing in his first major international games.

Olympic Tournament Rio gymnasts want to train in the Crimea ( Олимпийский турнир Рио гимнасты хотят отрепетировать в Крыму)


photo: Ministry of Sport of the Russian Federation.
Speaking via the official website of theMinistry of Sport of the Russian Federation, Valentina Rodionenko calls for investment in Crimea's gymnastics facilities in Yalta, both for local improvement and to provide the national team with opportunities for warm weather training prior to the Rio Olympics. She suggests that coaches from Ukraine's war-torn cities of Donetsk and Lugansk who have expressed an interest in working for Russia, may find employment there.
Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko met with the Russian national team in gymnastics during a visit to "Round Lake". State Coach Valentina Rodionenko told press that one of the main themes of discussion was the Federal Target Programme "Development of physical culture and sports in Russia for 2006-2015".
- We are very pleased that the Minister took the time to talk with the team, and answer all the questions from the 'excited children', - said Valentina Rodionenko. - For example, the Olympic champion, Aliya Mustafina wondered whether it would be possible to create another specialized gym in Moscow, where she would be able to work after the end of her sports career. On the one hand, it may be a slightly naive desire, but on the other hand, it's great that Aliya is seriously thinking about her future.
