site.btaBulgarian Kevin Penev Wins Three Medals at Gymnastics World Challenge Cup in Croatia
Bulgarian athlete Kevin Penev finished his run at the International Gymnastics Federation World Challenge Cup 2024 in Osijek, Croatia, with three medals. A score of 13.950 got Penev the bronze in the floor event on April 6, while the following day he won another bronze in the vault event with a score of 14.300. Again on April 7, he got the gold medal in the still rings event with a score of 13.250.
Penev commented on his performance, saying: "I did not expect that I will win the gold medal in the still rings. My expectations were that my performances in the floor and vault could win medals, as I performed my new vault. My floor performance also had a higher difficulty level."
Penev will represent Bulgaria at the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. He is optimistic that his brother, Eddie Penev, can also earn a visa for the Olympics, as he is ambitious and trains hard.
