Season's best international scores
Note: Only the scores of senior gymnasts from international events have been included below. Only one score per gymnast is included. In May of this year, World Gymnastics lifted all restrictions against Russian and Belarusian athletes.[30] Although at some competitions the local government refused to allow their flags and emblems and they therefore had to compete under the World Gymnastics banner,[31] this list references their country.
