Beatrice Tornatore was born on 21 July 1999, in Padua. She began gymnastics at age six.[1]

In Pesaro they won the silver in the group all-around behind Bulgaria but gold in both event finals.[3] In Baku, they once again won the silver in the group all-around behind Bulgaria, and they won the gold in 5 hoops and finished 4th in 3 Balls + 2 Ropes.[4] Then in Portimão, they won gold in the group all-around and 5 hoops.[5] In Minsk, they won the gold in the group all-around and silver in 3 Balls + 2 Ropes.[6] Finally, in Kazan, they won the silver in the group all-around behind Russia.[7]

The team finished fourth in the group all-around competition and in the 3 Balls + 2 Ropes, but they won the gold medal in the 5 hoops- preventing Russia from sweeping the gold medals in every single event.[8]
