Editing Simona Amânar (section)

===1994–1995===
In 1994, her first year on the senior national team, Amânar contributed to Romania's team titles at the [[1994 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships (Team)|World]] and [[European Women's Artistic Gymnastics Championships|European Championships]].

Amânar began to excel as an individual performer at the 1995 European Cup, placing second in the all-around behind [[Svetlana Khorkina]] of Russia and winning gold on both [[Vault (gymnastics)|vault]] and [[Floor (gymnastics)|floor exercise]]. At the [[1995 World Artistic Gymnastics Championships|1995 World Championships]], she helped Romania secure its second consecutive world team title and became co-champion on vault (with all-around winner [[Lilia Podkopayeva]] of Ukraine). Amânar's powerful floor routine and vaults put her in the lead after two rotations in the all-around, but she dropped to fourth after an average [[uneven bars]] routine and a shaky [[balance beam]] routine.
