Stiliana Nikolova won the gold medal in the all-around at the 2024 Rhythmic Gymnastics Grand Prix in Marbella, Spain. Takhmina Ikromova (Uzbekistan) won the silver medal. Darja Varfolomeev from Germany came third.

The other Bulgarian rhythmic gymnast Eva Brezalieva started the competition excellently, but she made serious mistakes in the final routine (ribbon) and finished seventh.

Today, Nikolova and Brezalieva will compete in seven out of eight apparatus finals.

Bulgaria's most successful football player Hristo Stoichkov watched the competition at the Elena Benitez Sports Palace in San Pedro Alcántara. He met with the Bulgarian rhythmic gymnasts and wished them good luck.
