Hopman ninth in gymnastics final

Havana Hopman was the best of the New Zealanders in the final of the rhythmic gymnastics all around competition.

Hopman put together a solid sequence through the four disciplines – hoop, ball, clubs and ribbon – and totalled 105.100 for ninth place. She was very good on the clubs.

Paris Chin was 14th of the 16 finalists, with a total of 97.200. She had problems with the ball, which cost her several places.

The gold medal was won by Marfa Ekimova of England with 112.300.

Hopman has also qualified for the final of the clubs competition.
