Legendary Gymnast Petkovšek Ends Career

One of the most successful Slovenian gymnasts of the past decade, Mitja Petkovšek, has decided to end his career that includes a dozen medals from world and major European competitions.

While he never won an Olympic medal, the specialist on parallel bars won world titles in 2005 and 2007, European titles in 2000, 2007 and 2008 and was World Cup champion in 2000 and 2004 (Photo: Gimnastična zveza Slovenije)

The 38-year-old, who has been dealing with a nagging back injury, announced his retirement in an interview for Delo.

"I have realised that I can not make it any more. I have given up in this fight," he admitted only weeks ahead of the World Gymnastic Championships in Glasgow.

This means that Petkovšek will not compete at the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio in a bid to win the only medal that has eluded him during an illustrious career lasting nearly 20 years.

The girls we have selected blend a mix of great experience with some younger faces who have already proven themselves in major championships. For Becky, Claudia, Ruby and Kelly it’s a return to the Hydro Arena where they’ve all experienced great successes last summer, these girls all competed at last year’s World Championships where the team placed 6th in China. For Amy and Ellie this is their first World Championships but both showed at the European Championships that they can excel at this level. We’re all excited to get to Glasgow and begin the competitions knowing that we will have amazing support from the home crowd who can help give us that extra edge as we fight for Olympic places.”
