History[edit]
Albert Azaryan and Hrant Shahinyan were two successful Armenian gymnasts when Armenia was part of the Soviet Union (Armenian SSR); both gymnasts won numerous Olympic and World medals.[1] After the dissolution of the Soviet Union, Armenia began competing as an independent nation at the 1993 World Championships. At the 2015 World Championships Harutyun Merdinyan won the first World Championships medal for an independent Armenia, a bronze on pommel horse.[2] At the 2020 Olympic Games Artur Davtyan won the first Olympic medal for Armenia, a bronze on vault.[3]
