"The first tournament for me this year will be the World Cup in Baku."
Azerbaijani gymnast Mikhail Malkin told Idman.biz.
The world tumbling champion said that he has already started preparations for the World Cup, which will be held on February 23-25 at the National Gymnastics Arena. According to him, the main start of the season will be the European Championship, which will take place in Guimaraes, Portugal, at the beginning of April.
The member of the Azerbaijan national team also spoke about his future plans: "After winning two medals at the World Championship, my main goal now is to win the World Games. I have won almost every possible title in tumbling during my career, the only thing missing is the World Games gold. This will be a great motivational factor."
It should be noted that by winning the world championship, Malkin qualified for the World Games to be held in Chengdu, China in 2025.
