The World Championships in Jakarta became the first big start for Russian gymnasts after a forced break. Despite the long pause, Angelina coped perfectly with her rivals, performing MakSim’s song “Do You Know”. The fact that his result was only 0.1 point higher than his closest rival added tension and beauty to the victory.

For Melnikova, this is already the second gold at the world level – she also won the all-around in 2021. It was then that his career at the highest level began, which had to be interrupted for several years. But the comeback was triumphant – the athlete immediately rose to the highest step of the podium.

The World Championships in Jakarta will end on October 25, and fans are eagerly awaiting the further performances of Russian athletes. However, it is already obvious that Angelina Melnikova returned to the sport with a strong statement and brought bright emotions to the fans.
