Boryana Kaleyn, who was among the favourites for a gold medal at the 39th FIG Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships in Sofia, will not participate at the competition, because of a suspected viral infection. 

The athlete has been admitted to hospital for high body temperature, said Iliana Raeva, President of the Bulgarian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation. Boryana Kaleyn did two training sessions yesterday, but she felt nauseous at the first one.
