After the first of four rounds in the women’s individual all-around final at the 2024 Paris Olympics, Israeli rhythmic gymnast Daria Atamanov is ranked 5th overall with a score of 35.200 after a successful hoop routine.
Atamanov and the other nine finalists will still compete in the ball, clubs and ribbon apparati, after which the medalists are determined via an aggregation of all four scores.
