2023 Chengdu Universiade RG Individual AA and Apparatus Final Qualifications

The rhythmic Gymnastics competition gets underway today at the Chengdu Sports University Gymnasium with the first day of the Individual All-Around competition and apparatus qualification, with gymnasts taking to the competition with the Hoop and Ball. Solid starts from Andreea-Cristina Verdes and Adelina Beljajeva. Such flexibility and great turns from Pekova. There is quite a delay in the scoring with one gymnast finishing and the other still having a lengthy wait for their score! Couple of drops from Singapore's Angeline Qihong Lin. After the first group on the first day, Hungarian Fanni Pigniczki leads the Hoop standings over Japan's Naruha Suzuki and Kazakhstan's Elzhana Taniyeva. Whilst with the Ball, Pigniczki leads over Taniyeva and Bulgaria's Lachezara Iachezarova Pekova. Pigniczki leads Suzuki and Taniyeva in the All-Around standings. At the end of the first day, Pigniczki leads in the All Around over Ukraine's Khrystyna Pohranchyna and China's LI Huili
