Russian gymnast Viktoria Listunova will not be competing on all four events at the upcoming Russian cup, which will be held between 6-10 July.

The 17 year old gymnast will only compete on the uneven bars due to injury.

"Listunova in Kaluga will perform only on uneven bars. She had an injury, now Victoria is recovering. We decided to keep the gymnast and not risk it again. She will have many more starts ahead of her," said Valentina Rodionenko, head coach of the team.

The Russian gymnast was part of the ROC Olympic gold winning team at the last Olympic Games. She claimed the all around title at the European championships in the same year.
