“It is very challenging and demanding to perform in our native land, but we managed to deal with our worries. We knew why we worked all year. It was a very important start in our careers, as the World Championships provide a license [to the Olympic Games],” Ayshan Bayramova said.

Diana Ahmadbayli noted that holding such an important competition in her native land is a gift in of itself on the one hand, while also being a challenge on the other.

“Before going out on the stage, we understood that we had been working all year and must do everything well. Of course we had our worries, but since we set our minds optimistically, we went out there and performed the program,” said Aliya Pashayeva.

The 37th Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships will last until September 22.

The Championships is the qualification competition for the Olympic Games to be held in Tokyo in 2020.
