The 17-year-old Ukrainian Taisia Onofriichuk approached the continental championship as one of the favorites: during the three months of the 2025 competition season, the athlete took part in six tournaments and climbed the podium 29 times out of 30 possible. She has 18 gold, 7 silver and 4 bronze medals.
For Taisia, the adult Euro-2025 is the second in her career: last season she made her debut at the continental championship among adults and won bronze in the hoop exercises, and this year she became the European champion in the individual all-around.
