Comparative analysis of the vaults performed by female gymnasts at the 2022 and 2023 World championships
Abstract and keywords
Abstract (English):
The article presents a study on a comparative analysis of the vault performed at the 2022 and 2023 World Championships to determine the most likely winners on this apparatus at the upcoming Games of the XXXIII Olympiad in 2024. It is shown that the Baitova vault with a low difficulty of 5 points remains the most popular. Among the vaults of the other groups, Chusovitina and Cheng were singled out, which were the most difficult performed in the finals of both championships. The Biles 2 vault, which is performed by the world's only gymnast S. Biles, is separately noted. According to all forecasts, she is still the main contender for the gold medal of the 2024 Olympics.
