Seitz reaches for the European title again

The German record champion Elisabeth Seitz kept her chance of successfully defending her title on the uneven bars at the European Artistic Gymnastics Championships in Antalya.

The 29-year-old from Stuttgart qualified in the prelim with a strong exercise for the medal decision on Saturday.

Emma Malewski, on the other hand, cannot repeat her last year’s European Championship triumph on the balance beam. The 18-year-old from Chemnitz fell during the qualification and was eliminated.

The German team reached their minimum target and qualified for the World Championships in October in Antwerp with a ninth place. This is where the tickets for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris will be allocated.
