2013 World Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships


The 2013 World Rhythmic Gymnastics Championships were held in Kyiv, Ukraine, from 28 August to 1 September, 2013 at the Palace of Sports.
The apparatus finals and all-around qualification round were run concurrently on the first two days of the competition, with all gymnasts competing during the day before the apparatus finals were held.
Russian gymnasts won four of the five individual events, with Hanna Rizatdinova from Ukraine being the only gymnast from another federation to win a gold medal. Margarita Mamun from Russia lead the field in qualifications, but she made mistakes in three of four routines in the all-around final and fell to sixth place. Yana Kudryavtseva, also of the Russian Federation, won the all-around title after she performed more cleanly, and she was awarded the highest score of the competition, 18.70, for her clubs routine. She became the youngest individual world all-around champion in rhythmic gymnastics history at the age of 15 years. Rizatdinova won silver, and Melitina Staniouta from Belarus won bronze.
In the group competition, Russia was less dominant, with only one gold in the 3 balls/2 ribbons final. The Belarussian group won the all-around for the first time since the 1998 World Championships. Italy won silver and Russia bronze. In the apparatus finals, Spain won two medals, gold with 5 pairs of clubs and bronze with 3 balls/2 ribbons. An Angolan group competed for the first time at the World Championships.
The Longines Prize for Elegance was awarded to Rizatdinova.
