Gymnastics events have been staged at the Olympic Games since 1896[1] with Russian female gymnasts having participated in every Olympic Games between 1996–2020. They did not participate at the 2024 Olympic Games due to them being banned as a team and refusing to participate as individual neutral athletes.[2] A total of 32 female artistic gymnasts have represented Russia or the Russian Olympic Committee and they have won 27 medals,[3] including a team gold in 2020.[4] As a team Russia has won one gold, three silvers, and one bronze.[5]
The most decorated Russian females artistic gymnasts are Svetlana Khorkina (1996, 2000, 2004)[6] and Aliya Mustafina (2012, 2016) with seven Olympic medals each. Mustafina was the first Russian gymnast to defend two medals at consecutive games: she won bronze in all-around and gold on uneven bars in 2012 as well as the 2016 Summer Olympics.[7]
The following only counts medals won by gymnasts when they represented Russia or the Russian Olympic Committee (Not the Unified Team or the Soviet Union). Example: Rozalia Galiyeva won a gold medal with the Unified Team in 1992, but only the silver medal she won in 1996 appears here.
