The Russians will have several new faces in their squad.

Two promising 16-year-olds, Yulia Lozhechko and Polina Miller, will lead the women's team, which also includes two gymnasts who competed in Athens, 18-year-old Anna Pavlova and Yelena Zamolodchikova, now considered a veteran at 23.

Zamolodchikova, who surprised many gymnastics experts by winning gold medals in the vault and floor exercises at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney, has been near her top form in recent months after battling various injuries for several years.

The men will be led by another newcomer, 20-year-old Sergei Khorokhordin, who finished fourth in the all-around competition at this year's European championships in Debrecen, Hungary.The Siberian-born Khorokhordin will be the only Russian gymnast competing for the men's all-round title in Melbourne.

Veterans Nikolai Kryukov, 27, and Alexander Safoshkin, 28, who won European bronzes in the pommel horse and rings respectively, will battle on the individual apparatus."We're going to Melbourne with nothing to lose and a lot to prove," a confident-looking Khorokhordin said.

Rodionenko, however, refuses to take anything for granted.

"Our prime target is to build the team for the 2008 Beijing Olympics," he said.

"As far as the world championships go, we have a more modest goal in Melbourne: we want to show everyone that we're back.

"We want to test ourselves against the best. If we manage to win medals it will be even better, it'll be a huge boost for our young team ahead of Beijing."

I'm still the best, says Ponor before worlds

BUCHAREST, Nov 15 (Reuters) - Triple Olympic gold medallist Catalina Ponor says she remains the world's best gymnast despite the misfortunes that have befallen the sport in Romania over the past year.
