On 30. /31. August 2024 the “Gracia Fair Cup” took place in Budapest with rhythmic gymnasts from ten nations of three continents.
In the elite all-around, the two Viennese Dina and Arina Mironskaya reached the 5th and 9th places. With the band, on the other hand, Dina prevailed against the entire competition and won the gold medal.

For statisticians: This is only the second victory of an Austrian in a FIG-licensed RG meeting – after Elisabeth Bergmann in 1988 at the then Medico Cup in Feldkirch, also with the tape. In between there were numerous medals for Austria – mainly by Caroline Weber and Nicol Ruprecht – but never a victory.

The Israeli Yuval Mandelgeim won the all-around in Budapest ahead of the two Latvians Patricija Pavlenko and Zlata Karpovica, the Brazilian Renata Diniz, followed by Dina Mironskaya.

Dina’s twin sister Arina cost a below-average club course a better all-around place, with the hoop and with the band she was fourth in each case.
