On Saturday, April 18, she also took bronze in the all-around. The Bulgarian team filed an inquiry regarding part of the judges’ score, but it was rejected.

The hoop title was won by European champion Taisiia Onofriichuk (Ukraine), while third place went to Sofia Ilteryakova.

Later on Sunday, April 19, Bulgaria’s women’s ensemble will compete in the finals with three hoops and two pairs of clubs.
