Record number of registrations likely...!

According to the interim total of registrations by name on February 13, 2007, 182 active participants from 45 countries have already registered for the 31. Tournament of Masters 2007.
This means the record number of participants achieved 2004 (44 countries) could be surpassed!
Whereas 127 gymnasts from 40 countries - including all the leading gymnastics nations with the exception of Great Britain and the Czech Republic - are expected to compete in the men's contests, the registrations for the women's contest sofar look less consistent:
Here about 55 gymnasts frm 23 countries - including Rumania, China, Brazil, Australia and Uzbekistan - are expected to compete, however there have sofar been no registrations from some of the top gymnastics countries such as the USA, Russia, Italy, France and the hosts of the European Championships, the Netherlands.
