At the third women's world championships 1950 in Basel the most
successful woman came from Poland. Helena Rakoci got not only the first
balance beam title, but also the gold medals all around, on vault, and
floor,
and sho won silver on bars.
|
|
The most successful nation on beam is Romania: from Nadia Comaneci 1976 to
Andreea Raducan 2001 in Ghent the Romanian gymnasts won 7 gold medals, the
URS and also the USA won five titles.
Specially on beam the Chinese
gymnastics is going forward with the titleholder FAN,
Ye.
but 2005 strong American gymnasts got gold and silver, LIUKIN
and MEMMEL ... Liukin again in 2007 Stuttgart
and 2006 Irina KRANSNYANSKA
got the first gold for Ukraine.
Chinese Deng, Linlin won gold in 2009
after a break of six years ..Nine
years after Andreea
Raducan there was in
2010 by
Ana Porgras
again a
Romanian victory
and even
after 17 years (D.
Kotchetkova, 1996)
went gold by
Aliya
Mustafina once again
to Russia.
Simone BILES
(USA)
was
now
the successfully defending champion
in Glasgow in 2015.
Pauline Schaefer
earned a big success for Germani: 36 Jahre nach Maxi Gnauck in Moscow
she won the first gold for the unit Germany - the same success with
Gold (Erika Zuchold) and Bronze (Christine Schmitt) in 1970 in
Lubbljana, the WCh Youngster Tabea Alt won one more Medal for Germany,
the Bronze!! And since 2011 - after 7 years later in Doha - won China its next Gold again!
Next gold on Beam for Simone BILES 2019 in Stuttgart - her third titel on this apparatus in front of China's titleholder LIU, Tingting ...
To the very first time 2021 in Kitakyushu a Jabanes Gymnast won on beam a gold medal: Urara ASHIKAWA , and 2022 in Liverpool the beam seems to remain in Japanese hands: Hazuki WATANABE wins - the best Chinese only on rank 6!
