Yana Batyrshina, the silver medalist of the 1996 Olympic Games, acted as the host of the Evgeniya Cup international tournament in Omsk.She told us about differences in this year's tournament.<blockquote>"I've been with Zhenya since the first tournament, and I see how it's developing. If the first tournament was held at the gymnastics center, now it's already being held at the G-Drive Arena. It's just the level of the World Championships, European Championships, and Olympic Games."</blockquote>She also noted progress of Sky Grace gymnasts and named the strengths of Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg.<blockquote>"There's been incredible progress in a year. I noted this and told each of them how their skills have grown, how brilliant their programs have become, how the new rules suit them, how they've blossomed. I have been following Masha since that very first tournament, you could say even earlier. It is a great responsibility to come as a leader, as the absolute champion of Russia. Her program is structured, made according to elements and artistry. Of course, in artistry I think she has no equal."</blockquote>

"Simply incredible progress!" Yana Batyrshina talks about the Sky Grace gymnasts

Yana Zaikina from Volgograd became the silver medalist of the Evgeniya Cup international tournament in the ball exercise in the junior program. The gymnast is coached by Elizaveta Chernova and choreographed by Elena Egorova.She told about the plan of the Academy gymnasts during pre-competition trainings.<blockquote>"After the competition in Krasnoyarsk, we stayed there for a couple of days to practice. And we had a plan: two clean run-throughs with each type. And we worked like this every day, practiced to make sure that everything would be credited, made it more difficult at some points, and made some changes in risks."</blockquote>She also shared how Evgenia Kanaeva, who staged her ribbon program, supported her in Omsk.<blockquote>"During the floor testing and after the first day she made comments and commended for some points. I wanted to show the beauty that Evgenia Olegovna staged. And when I went out to perform with the ribbon, I saw that she was judging. I appeared like this, looked at her, smiled, she smiled to me, and I stood up calmly; most importantly, calmly and beautifully, as she always asks. I ended up doing it clean, and she applauded me at the end."</blockquote>
