| Liubov Andrianova in 2016 |
Liubov Andrianova and Dmitri Andreev, members of the FIG Technical Committees for men’s and women’s gymnastics, travel today to Paris to participate in the Olympic Games.
Liubov Andrianova competed under her maiden name of Burda in the 1968 and 1972 Olympics and has been one of the leading FIG judges for decades. Her son with 1976 Olympic Champion, Nikolai Andrianov (RIP), Sergei, is a senior coach on the Russian senior team, specialising in bars.
1980 Olympic champion for the USSR, Elena Davydova, will also be judging for Canada at these Olympics.
Russians still sit on various committees of the FIG across the various sports that make up gymnastics. President of the RGF, Vasily Titov, sits on the Executive Board as a senior member of the FIG. Andrianova and Andreev will contribute their huge technical knowledge to the gymnastics at these Games, and will scrutinise the progress of the sport.
