A special competition day at the World Championships has kicked off — the individual all-around final!

They are being sold at a merchandise stand next to the Festhalle Frankfurt arena, where the world's best gymnasts are competing these days.

While we wait for the conclusion of the top global event, let’s look back at one of the 2019 performances by Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg. Back then, 12-year-old Masha won the silver medal in the all-around.

Ahead of Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg are the all-around final and all four event finals.

We wrote that we'd remember August 12th, but the 13th was also unforgettable for us, as Masha Borisova from St. Petersburg reached the all-around final at the World Championships!

We are sharing behind-the-scenes footage from the second day of the tournament in Germany and showing how the Olympic champion cheered on the gymnast.

Thank you for your support and energy!

Here’s a look at the support Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg received during her hoop routine on the second day of qualifications.

Before the World Championships, Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva noticed the leotards of Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg and suggested creating a new look for the gymnast ahead of the main competition of the season. A few weeks later, we are watching Masha’s ribbon routine at the World Championships — in her brand new unitard!

Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg is a European Championship medalist. The gymnast is a member of the main national team roster, lives and trains at the Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy. The gymnast's coach is Irina Gusarova, and her choreographer is Ekaterina Belova.

The gymnast performs her clubs routine to their song 'Alatay.' The musicians saw her rousing performance on the first day of the World Championships and decided to offer warm words of support.

We believe in the girls and are rooting for our team!

August 12, 2026 — we will remember this day.

Arina, these little fans are looking forward to your return to the carpet!
