Swiss Cup (gymnastics)

(Redirected from Swiss Cup Zürich)

The Swiss Cup or Swiss Cup Zürich is an annual artistic gymnastics competition held in Zürich, Switzerland. The first iteration was held in 1982.

Unlike most artistic gymnastics competitions, the Swiss Cup is a mixed pairs event and features an elimination system. Each team consists of a male and a female gymnast from the same country. Both of them compete on all events of their gender (so the women on vault, beam, uneven bars and floor, and the men on floor, pommel horse, rings, vault, parallel bars and high bar), and their scores are added together.[1]
