Claudia Fragapane Has Finished 10Th and Ruby Harrold 11Th in the World Championship All-Around Final in Nanning, China 10/10/14: Claudia Fragapane has finished 10th and Ruby Harrold 11th in the World Championship all-around final in Nanning, China. Competing on all four apparatus the all- around competition showcases the very best overall gymnasts, American favourite Simeone Biles taking the gold medal in style with an unbeatable 60.231 points. Claudia and Ruby, both multiple Commonwealth Games medallists this summer, preformed superbly throughout the final with no major errors under pressure. Claudia scored 56.098 with high points on floor and beam whilst Ruby excelled on bars with her score totalling 55.615, both girls delighted with their composed and consistent routines. An excited Claudia said after: “I’m really happy with today. The experience of being in a World Championship final is just incredible and I’m really happy that I went out there and competed well under pressure. The week has been amazing and there’s still more to come with the apparatus finals on the weekend, I’m just going to go out and enjoy myself again – can’t wait.” Ruby was similarly proud saying: “I enjoyed that from start to end. The atmosphere was so good and to have that experience and to be able to produce good routine shows that all the hard work in training is absolutely worth it, we both had lots of fun today.” Ruby qualified in superb 8th place for the final and began the girls’ competition on bars one of her favoured apparatus and the piece she has made an individual final on this championship. Her routine featured many unique moves that wowed the crowd; she looked incredibly focussed throughout with a step forward on landing her only fault to score 14.400 - slightly down on qualifying. On beam Ruby used her major championship experience to stay composed and calm, a few slight wobbles were soon controlled and she dismounted well to score 13.066. On floor she was expressive and again produced a controlled routine with limited errors giving her 13.466 while her vault was also strong to score 14.683 for an all-around total of 55.615. In contrast to Ruby, bars is one of Claudia’s lower scoring apparatus and she will have been glad to have performed with no major errors showing great fight to battle through her routine and score 13.066. Her beam routine was very composed after a long wait to compete, she was precise in all her skills and scored an impressive 14.166 marks. Floor is where Claudia comes alive, her energy levels and dynamic tumbling, along with some original breakdance style choreography always entertains scoring 14.266 to register one of the higher scores of the day. There were a couple of little bounces on lading her vault to end the competition but still a strong score of 14.600 for a total score of 56.098 points. The World Championships continue on Saturday with day one of the apparatus finals featuring Daniel Keatings on pommel, Claudia Fragapane on vault ,Ruby and Becky Downie on bars and Courtney Tulloch on rings.

  • Britain's Senior Women's Gymnastics Team Have
    Britain's senior women’s gymnastics team have taken silver at the 2016 European Championship in Bern (SUI). The GB line up of Becky Downie, Ellie Downie, Claudia Fragapane, Gabby Jupp and Ruby Harrold matched the medal won in 2014 with a final score of 170.312 . Britain and Russia proved to be a class above the other nations in the final despite both counting falls in the ‘all routines count’ format of the competition. Rebecca Downie “It’s amazing to win the silver medal but there’s also mixed emotions as we know we could have performed even better. Coming in to the final we were dreaming of the gold but a few mistakes cost us today and that’s something we will learn from. Every girl tried their hardest and put everything in to it so there are no regrets. The fact there are those mixed emotions show how far we have come, when we won silver in 2014 we were all amazed and delighted. It just shows how much we’ve grown as a team and how much our ambitions have developed.” Ruby Harrold adding “It is a fantastic achievement and when it sinks in I think we can all be very proud. We have proven again that we can push the best countries in the world. To be the second best country in Europe is fantastic and on top of that we know we can give even more which is a positive and motivation going forward.” Britain were competing in the same group Russia and had to watch as their closets rivals in qualifying competed.
