Team Uzbekistan's Secret Weapon

  Uzbekistan is not the best gymnastics country in  the world, they haven't sent a full team to the Olympics in a while. But, they have recently acquired a new secret weapon. Do you know who that is? It is a gymnast, when she first started her career, and went to her first Olympics, she started in Uzbekistan, but because her son had leukemia, she had to move to Germany to get her son treated, to pay for this treatment, this great gymnast represented Germany, but after the 2012 Olympics, her son recovered. She then went back to her home country, and represented them: Thats Uzbekistan. Please tell me you figured out? NO? Well, ok, here's a table of her achievements. (Table Cred: Wikipedia)

    One last hint, she is considered ancient in the sport, and is trying for Rio, she is an amazing vaulter with power. She'll be 41 when Rio rolls around. Still no?


   ITS OKSANA CHUSOVITINA!!!!


      I am sure that after she was away from Uzbekistan, and suddenly came back, the Uzbekistan team will be glad to have Oksana back, and and Oksana will be a huge part in helping the Uzbeks will be glad to have Oksana back. I can't wait to see Oksana competing in 2014 Worlds/International competitions as an Uzbek Gymnast.
