In Belgium it is about 14 sets of medals and also about the majority of the quota places for the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris – and the Wallerner has to surpass himself to secure one. “It will be extremely difficult. But if he gets everything out of himself, it’s not impossible,” says Mühlviertler ÖFT sports director Fabian Leimlehner. Austria’s greatest World Cup hopes rest once again on the shoulders of Vinzenz Höck. The 27-year-old from Graz’s goal is to reach the final of the best eight on the rings.

Simone Biles, who could become the most successful gymnast in history, is also in the international spotlight. The 26-year-old, who withdrew from the Summer Games in Tokyo 2021 due to mental problems, is in the US squad and would make history with another medal in her sixth World Cup participation. With 32 medals at the Olympics and World Cup so far, she is currently on a par with Larissa Latynina from the former Soviet Union.
