Happy Birthday to France's Best Gymnast of All Times

Yes, the uniquely elegant Eva Serrano. Watch her beautiful balances and leaps, and wonderfully personal style:



I remember reading somewhere that, while training with Bulgarian coaches, Eva had learned a couple of Bulgarian phrases including "Az sum mnogo gladna" ("I am very hungry"), a great expression for those on a perpetual diet. ;-)

A bronze medalist with hoop from the World Championships in 1997 in Berlin and 6th at the Atalanta Olympics in 1996, Eva remains unforgettable.
