Larisa Andreea Iordache (Romanian pronunciation: [laˈrisa anˈdree̯a jorˈdake]; born 19 June 1996)[2][3] is a Romanian former artistic gymnast. She represented Romania at the 2012 Olympic Games, winning a bronze medal with the team, and at the 2020 Olympic Games.[4]

The Romanian press referred to Iordache as "The New Nadia" as early as 2008, when she was 12, due to her skills and potential. In her first year of competition as a senior, Iordache won two gold medals at the 2012 European Championships, with her team and on floor exercise. She then won a bronze medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics in the team competition. Iordache is the 2013 World bronze medalist on floor exercise, the 2014 World silver medalist in the all-around and on floor exercise, and the 2015 World bronze medalist in the all-around.

Iordache was the 2013 European champion on beam, and the most successful gymnast at the 2014 European Championships, winning gold with her team and as an individual on floor exercise, silver on balance beam, and bronze on vault. She won bronze on beam at the 2017 European Championships, held in her home country in Cluj-Napoca. In 2020, she came back from a three-year break to win gold medals on balance beam and floor exercise at the 2020 European Championships, along with a silver with her team and as an individual on vault. Overall, Iordache has won sixteen medals at the European Championships, making her the second most decorated gymnast at the European level behind Svetlana Khorkina.[5] She is also a twelve-time gold medalist in the World Cups and the 2017 Universiade champion in the all-around and on floor exercise.

Early life

Iordache was born in Bucharest, Romania, where she still lives today. Her mother, Adriana Iordache, was a handball player, and her father played football. She has an older brother named Răzvan who also plays football.[3] Iordache was introduced to gymnastics after being spotted rollerblading by her first coach, Mariana Câmpeanu-Silişteanu.[6] Câmpeanu-Silişteanu asked Iordache's mother to put her into gymnastics classes, and although her mother was initially reluctant, Iordache began gymnastics at the age of five.[3] When explaining how she began gymnastics, Iordache stated, "I think [Câmpeanu-Silişteanu] noticed the speed and the energy and that impressed her. I didn't choose gymnastics – it chose me. It just happened. I am very glad to have got so far."[7] She also said that on her first day of training, she was too afraid to go into the gym, but after three days, she went into the gym and then she fell in love with gymnastics.[8]

Iordache began her gymnastics training at CSS Dinamo Club in Bucharest. She became a member of the junior national team in 2008, and she was coached by Ramona Micu, Adela Popa, Lacramioara Moldovan, and Claudiu Moldovan.[6] In 2008, she began receiving press attention in Romania comparing her to Nadia Comăneci, the 1976 Olympic all-around champion.[6] Iordache later said of the comparison that "I feel honored to be compared to Nadia, but every gymnast has her own qualities and every gymnast is good enough on her own and doesn't have to be compared to anyone."[9]

At the end of July, Iordache represented Romania at the 2012 Summer Olympics alongside teammates Diana Bulimar, Diana Chelaru, Sandra Izbașa, and Cătălina Ponor.[31] Prior to the competition, she developed plantar fasciitis in her left foot, which caused severe pain. Her coach, Mariana Bitang said about Iordache's condition prior to the Olympics, "We don't know what will happen — it depends how things go after this. If she's fine, she will do all events to qualify to the all-around final. It's hard to say now."[32] During podium training, Iordache only performed full routines on the uneven bars and the balance beam. Mariana Bitang explained that there was a 50–50 chance of whether she would be able to compete in all four events.[33]

Iordache did compete in all four events in the qualification round, and she helped Romania finish fourth.[34] Individually, she qualified for the all-around final in ninth place with a score of 57.800.[35] In the team final, she contributed scores of 14.800 on vault, 13.766 on uneven bars, and 15.300 on balance beam toward the Romanian team's third-place finish behind Russia and the United States.[36] After the team final, Iordache said on Romania's performance, "You always want to do better, but any Olympic medal is important for a team.

In October, Iordache competed at the 2013 World Championships in Antwerp, Belgium. In the all-around final, she finished fourth due to a fall from the balance beam on a back handspring full twist.[47] She fell on the same skill in the balance beam final and scored 13.933 for seventh place.[48] Then, in the floor exercise final, she won the bronze medal behind American Simone Biles and Italian Vanessa Ferrari.[49]

The Romanian National Championships were held at the end of August, and Iordache won four of the five gold medals. She won the all-around competition with 59.650, beating second-place finisher Ștefania Stănilă by nearly four points. The only gold she did not win was on the balance beam, where Andreea Munteanu won gold and Iordache took silver.[62] In September, she competed at the Switzerland-Germany-Romania Tri-Friendly meet in Obersiggenthal, Switzerland, and the Romanian team finished second behind Germany. She won the all-around competition, finishing nearly two points ahead of silver medalist Giulia Steingruber.[63]

In October, Iordache was named to the Romanian team for the 2014 World Championships in Nanning, China. After the team finished seventh in the qualification round,[64] she led the largely inexperienced Romanian team to a fourth-place finish.[65] Individually, she won a silver medal in the all-around competition, behind Simone Biles and ahead of Kyla Ross.[66] Afterwards, she said, "It is a good result. I am quite pleased with what I did today, but that does not mean I can not do even better. Everything is possible at any one competition. Today I did not get gold but next time there is always a chance."[67][68] In the balance beam final, she fell on her back handspring tuck full series and finished fifth. Later that day, she won the silver medal in the floor exercise final behind Simone Biles.[69] At the end of the World Championships, she said of her performance and her future,

After I lost on beam, it was so difficult for me to come back. It was fortunate that I came back well on floor, and I was happy to finally perform my routine without mistakes. I want to practice and practice so I can hit all of my elements and add difficulty. Time will tell if I am able to someday beat [Simone Biles]. It's hard to say what the future will bring. Next year is next year ... we will see then. But I will try my best.[70]

After the World Championships, she competed at the Arthur Gander Memorial, placing second in the all-around behind Russian Daria Spiridonova.[71] She then competed at the Swiss Cup with Marius Berbecar, and they placed seventh.[72] She then competed in the Stuttgart and Glasgow World Cups.

She received the highest score on every event except the uneven bars.[73] In Glasgow, Iordache posted the highest score on every event to take home the all-around gold with 59.232. She finished nearly three points ahead of silver medalist Ellie Black.[74]

2015

Iordache was scheduled to compete at the World Cups in Doha and Cottbus, but she withdrew due to an ankle injury.[75] She later withdrew from the 2015 European Championships due to the same injury.[76] She also had to skip the 2015 European Games due to school exams.[77]

Iordache in 2015

Iordache returned to competition on 12 September at the Romania-France Friendly competition, winning the all-around gold with a total score of 58.150 and helping Romania to the team gold.[78][79] At the Romanian National Championships, Iordache won gold with her club team and in the all-around with a score of 60.900. She also won gold on uneven bars, balance beam, and floor exercise.[80] In October, Iordache competed at the Novara cup against Italy, Belgium, and Spain. The Romanian team of Iordache, Diana Bulimar, Ana Maria Ocolişan, Laura Jurca, Silvia Zarzu, and Andreea Iridon won the gold medal, and Iordache won the all-around with a 59.750.[81]

Iordache was selected to compete at the 2015 World Championships along with Diana Bulimar, Ana Maria Ocolişan, Laura Jurca, Silvia Zarzu, and Cătălina Ponor.[82] However, Ponor withdrew after having surgery, and the alternate Andreea Iridon was put in.[83] On the day before the qualification round, Ocolisan injured her ankle and could not compete.[84] In the qualification round, Iordache scored a disappointing 55.698 in the all-around after downgrading her floor routine and falling off the uneven bars and balance beam.[85] The Romanian team finished in thirteenth place, meaning that they did not directly qualify for the 2016 Olympics.[86] Their performance was described as a meltdown, as everyone except Jurca fell off the uneven bars and team members had several falls off the balance beam.[87] Iordache and her teammates were seen crying afterwards.[87] Iordache finished sixteenth all-around in the qualification round, but in the all-around final, she won the bronze medal, with a score of 59.107 behind Gabby Douglas and Simone Biles.[88] After winning the bronze medal in the all-around she explained, "I feel much better now than Friday, but I want much more, all the time. It was so hard for me. But I have my coach, my parents, my girls and my team with me. Today was good for me. It was so good for me."[89]

After the World Championships, Iordache competed at the Arthur Gander Memorial, where she won the all-around gold medal ahead of Pauline Schäfer from Germany and Romanian teammate Diana Bulimar.[90] Then at the Swiss Cup, she competed with Marius Berbecar, and they won the silver medal behind Ukraine.[91]

2016

In March, Iordache fractured her fourth metacarpal bone during balance beam training and had to have surgery.[92] She missed the Olympic Test Event in April, and Romania failed to qualify a full team to the Olympics.[93] In May, Iordache's injury required another operation, and Romanian newspapers began reporting that Cătălina Ponor would be sent to the Olympic Games instead of Iordache, but this was not initially confirmed by the Romanian Gymnastics Federation.[94]

She returned to competition in July at the National Championships, and she competed despite suffering from a concussion during training.[95] She won the gold medal in the all-around on the uneven bars, and the silver medal on the balance beam behind Ponor.[96] She hurt her knee on the dismount of her uneven bars routine, and after competing in the balance beam final, she withdrew from the floor exercise final.[95] Ponor was then named the Olympic flag-bearer for Romania, essentially confirming the Ponor would compete instead of Iordache despite the Romanian Gymnastics Federation stating that both of them would travel to Rio.[95]

Iordache then competed at a friendly meet against France, and the Romanian team finished second. She tied for the silver medal in the all-around with Louise Vanhille.[97] She then competed at a friendly meet in Chemnitz, Germany where she finished ninth in the all-around.[98] Iordache was officially named the alternate for the Olympic Games.[99] Following the Olympic Games, she confirmed that she would continue to compete.[100]

2017

Iordache opened her season by competing at the Sainté Gym Cup in Saint-Étienne, France. She only competed on the uneven bars, where she won the gold medal, and the balance beam, where she won the silver medal.[101] She was selected for the European Championships in Cluj-Napoca along with first-year seniors Olivia Cîmpian and Ioana Crișan, and London Olympic teammate Cătălina Ponor.[102] She was not yet ready to compete in the all-around, competing only on uneven bars and balance beam, and she qualified first into balance beam finals.[103] In the balance beam final, she won the bronze medal, with Ponor winning gold and Eythora Thorsdottir winning silver.[104]

In May, Iordache competed at the World Cup held in Koper. She decided to perform only on the balance beam and uneven bars. Iordache won gold in both finals, with a score of 13.800 on the uneven bars and a 14.150 on the balance beam.[105][106] She was then selected to represent Romania at the 2017 Summer Universiade. She competed in the all-around for the first time of the year, and she qualified for the all-around final in second place behind Ellie Black.[107] In the all-around final, she won the gold medal with a total score of 56.750.[108] In the event finals, she placed fifth on the uneven bars,[109] won the bronze medal on the balance beam behind Black and Natsumi Sasada,[110] and won the gold medal on the floor exercise.[111]

Then at the Romanian Championships, Iordache won the gold medal in the all-around by five-and-a-half points over Denisa Golgotă. She also won the gold medal on uneven bars, balance beam, and floor exercise.[112] She then competed at the Paris World Cup where she placed fourth on the uneven bars, won the gold on the balance beam, and won the silver on the floor exercise behind Claudia Fragapane.[113]

In October, Iordache traveled to Montreal for the 2017 World Championships but suffered an Achilles tendon tear during the warm-ups for the qualification round.[114] She then flew back to Romania and had surgery.[115] She had a second surgery on her Achilles tendon a month and a half later.[116]

2018–2019

In June 2018, Iordache told the Romanian media that her recovery has been going slowly and that there is a 50% chance of her returning to gymnastics.[115] In September 2018, Larisa went to Dr. Weinstable in Vienna, Austria, with the help of former Romanian head coaches, Mariana Bitang and Octavian Bellu, to have her third surgery on her Achilles tendon.[117] In January 2019, she had a final examination on her Achilles tendon by Dr. Weinstable in Vienna.[118] She was told that she was able to begin training at full capacity, and Iordache officially announced her comeback to elite gymnastics.[119][120]

2020

In late October 2020, Iordache reported on Twitter that she had tested positive for COVID-19, forcing her to forego a verification meet that would have been her first competition in three years.[121] Her symptoms were mild.[4] In November, Iordache made her comeback debut at the Romanian National Championships. She had the fourth-highest all-around score with a 52.234, just over half a point behind all-around bronze medalist Ioana Stănciulescu. However, because she was not competing for her club team and was instead competing as an individual, she was not allowed to be ranked. She still competed in the uneven bars and balance beam finals, and had she been eligible, she would have won gold on uneven bars and silver on balance beam.[122] Shortly thereafter she was named to Romania's team for the 2020 European Championships.[123]

At the European Championships, the Romanian team of Iordache, Antonia Duță, Silviana Sfiringu, Ioana Stănciulescu, and Daniela Trică won the silver medal behind Ukraine.[124] Iordache won the silver medal on vault behind Hungary's Zsófia Kovács,[125] and she placed fourth on uneven bars.[126] Then, she won the gold medal on both balance beam and floor exercise.[127][128]

2021

In April 2021, Iordache competed at the 2021 European Championships, which was her last chance to qualify for the 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo.[129] Despite waking up the morning of the competition with severe abdominal pain and being told by doctors to withdraw, Iordache competed in the qualification round.[4] In the qualification round, she placed fourth in the all-around with a score of 54.698 behind Russians Angelina Melnikova, Viktoria Listunova, and Vladislava Urazova.[130] Because Russia could only earn one Olympic spot at the European Championships, Iordache qualified a nominative spot for the Olympics.[131] She also qualified in first place to the balance beam final, despite a fall, and sixth place in the floor exercise final.[132] She later withdrew from the all-around and event finals due to a kidney infection that required hospitalization.[133][134] She had to take two weeks off of training once she was released from the hospital.[135] At the end of the European Championships, Iordache was presented with the Shooting Star award from the event's sponsor, SmartScoring, alongside Ireland's Rhys McClenaghan.[5] The award is given to a female and a male gymnast who have an exceptional story and are inspirations for future gymnasts.[136]

Iordache competed at the Cairo World Challenge Cup in June where she won the gold medal on the balance beam and the bronze medal on the uneven bars behind Diana Varinska and Zója Székely.[137] She was originally going to compete at the FIT Challenge in Ghent; however, she withdrew from the competition after her mother died from a long-term illness.[138][139]

Tokyo Olympics

Iordache qualified to represent Romania at the 2020 Summer Olympics alongside her teammate Maria Holbură. On 21 July, it was announced that she would only compete on the balance beam due to an ankle injury.[140] She qualified to the balance beam final in fourth place, behind American Sunisa Lee and Chinese gymnasts Tang Xijing and Guan Chenchen.[141][142] However, she withdrew from the final due to her ankle injury.[143][144]

In December, Iordache traveled to Vienna to have surgery on her ankle.[145][146] On 16 December, she announced her retirement from gymnastics on her Instagram account.[1]
