Olympic Games 2008 - Anna's second bronze medal


The Beijing Olympic Games 2008 was Anna's second Olympic Games. As could be expected the high Russian scores would be hard to beat. She qualified third behind the Russians Kanaeva and Kapranova. In the finals, two days later, her marks were so low that the judges called a fairly long meeting in the middle of the competition, to evaluate why her marks were so low. As a result of this, the superior judges raised the incorrect mark given by the judges. This still however, only left Anna with the bronze at the end of the competition. Although many would argue that this score was unfair, and more than anyone it must have seemed so to Anna, Anna kept her head high throughout the competition and fought as hard with the routines as she did to hold back her tears.This is the true champion.

ANYA for us,you are always the GOLD girl,like Patra's World Championships 2007 victory(Anya had won the World Championships 2007 in Patras)
