Ever since 1832, the Swiss company Longines is known for it's elegancy, classy and accurate watches. For more than 25 years, they are involved in artistic gymnastics. Thanks to Longines we are able to see the exact results of every single performance, within just very little time. The link beween this brand and gymnastics may be clear. In both you'll find back accuracy, elegance and beauty.
During the Artistic Gymnastics World Championships, Longines gives a price to the most elegant male and female gymnast who participated in the allround finales. It's not about the highest score, but all about elegance, beauty, charisma and charm. The gymnasts are chosen by a special jury. Also members of the press, accreditated by the FIG, are allowed to give their votes. In Antwerp the results of this election will be presented after the women’s all-around final on friday evening.
Some of the winners of last world championships were Kohei Uchimura (JPN), Ana Porgras (ROU), Philipp Boy (GER) and Rie Tanaka (JPN). And after tonight we can add Kyla Ross (USA) to the women's list!
