Additional information
BEST APPARATUS
She specialises in vault. "I am powerful, but not very flexible. So on the beam and on the floor, it penalises me a bit in gymnastic jumps. For the vault, you have to be powerful, run fast, and be technical. These are really my qualities. I really have to work on a second apparatus to have a chance for a medal." (pokaa.fr, 24 Aug 2021)
