Bhardwaj (gymnastics)
Bhardwaj is a move on the uneven bars in artistic gymnastics in which the gymnast performs a layout salto with full twist from the high bar to catch the low bar. This movement can also be described as a full-twisting Pak salto. The move is named after Indian American gymnast Mohini Bhardwaj, who was the first to perform it at an international competition. Bhardwaj is a retired American artistic gymnast who competed at the 1997 and 2001 World Championships and earned a silver medal with the American team at the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens and is a member of the USA Gymnastics Hall of Fame. She is the first Indian-American gymnast, and the second Indian-American athlete in any sport or form of screen, to medal at the Olympics.
