Russia first competed at the 1993 World Championships, after the fall of the Soviet Union. The Russian women won their first team gold in 2010 and the men won their first team gold in 2019.
In 2021 Russian athletes competed as the Russian Gymnastics Federation (RGF) due to sanctions in place against Russian sports. Russia was banned from participating at the 2022 and 2023 World Championships due to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. In 2025 a handful of Russian gymnasts were granted neutral status, allowing them to return to major competitions, starting with the 2025 World Championships.
