Rhythmic gymnastics governance in Russia faces a pivotal moment as Irina Viner, who leads the All-Russian Federation of Rhythmic Gymnastics, has asked the Court of Arbitration for Sport to review recent court actions.

The federation believes the window for CAS involvement remains unclear, and a CAS ruling could carry weight beyond a single case, touching on how national bodies interact with global authorities amid ongoing governance debates.
