2026 European Women's Artistic Gymnastics Championships
Overview
The Russian women’s artistic gymnastics team won the gold medal at the 2026 European Championships in Zagreb, Croatia, with a total score of 165.430. Competing under a neutral flag, the team included Angelina Melnikova, Anna Kalmykova, and Liudmila Roshchina.
Italy secured the silver medal with 161.769 points, while France took third place with 159.263 points. Individual athlete Angelina Melnikova achieved significant success at the event, winning gold in the all-around, vault, and team categories, alongside bronze medals in the balance beam and floor exercise.
Recent reports indicate the team secured six medals in total despite competing with only three athletes instead of the permitted five. Anna Kalmykova also earned a silver medal in the all-around competition. The team’s participation was initially complicated by travel issues when Croatia declined visas for Melnikova, Kalmykova, and Viktoria Listunova. These visa issues were eventually resolved following an appeal by the Croatian Gymnastics Federation and intervention by the Russian Foreign Ministry.
