Russia

Another Russian beauty we will not see at the 2022 tournament thanks to the national team being banned from the competition. Despite being banned, the team still had a considerable jump in their world ranking as well, going from 48th when they hosted the competition in 2018 to 33rd in 2022.

While their absence from the tournament will not double hamper their ranking, they will most likely be raring to qualify for another tournament should their ban be lifted. This would also give these beautiful women a reason to unleash themselves to the world again. Their most notable international achievement was winning the 1960 European Championships.
