Dutch gymnast
Do you know names of dutch gymnasts, and what do you think about them?

I sure do! :) It is nice to see Verona Van de Leur still going and Suzanne Harmes starting her comeback now after giving birth. The Dutch gymnasts are nice to watch but unfortunately not as good as they where when Verona was on her peak. I also like Loes Linders also if she doesn`t bring in the highest scores. There is some talent now with Sanne Wevers, Anne Tritten and some others, and the Masela sisters seem incredibly talented, too.

Also, from the Netherlands, Yuri Van Gelder top on rings and Epke Zonderland top on high bar at Glasgow Grand Prix in Britain: [quote]On pommel horse Daniel Popescu (Romania) finished in first place, while Yuri Van Gelder (Netherlands) and Du Wei (China) took the top spots on rings and vault respectively. On parallel bars Mitja Petkovsek (Slovenia), a twice world champion on this apparatus, showed he is still the master to win gold. In a fiercely fought high bar competition Epke Zonderland (Netherlands) saw off Robert Weber (Germany) and Brian Gladow Germany) to claim victory. In the women's competition Steliana Nistor (Romania) took gold on A-bars, pipping the current European champion, Dariya Zgoba (Ukraine). Tweddle finished down in seventh.[/quote] http://www.gymchat.com/messageboards/viewtopic.php?t=9941

IG did an article on Dutch gymnast Verona van de Leur last week. She's going for getting the one spot Dutch has to the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

Van de Leur is the Netherlands' most successful female gymnast to date, with seven European Championship medals and one world silver medal. "I am very happy with my career for so far
