Gymnastics #24 - The Road to Paris

[Karen-W]

OMG - this break between rotations is ridiculously long while NBC finishes interviewing the women who made the Women's 400m hurdles team.

It’s wild to me that we aren’t even talking about having 2 Oly AA gold medalists here

The scores:

It’s hard to read that, how do we know, which is night one, and which is night two, there’s so many numbers jumbled together

If you click on the first link I provided just now it goes directly to the start list/rotation scores and you just need to click on rotation 2 for the current rotation.

I missed Suni on Peacock, so kudos to NBC for showing her when it came on!

 

[canbelto]

Sunis bar set was awesome!!!

 

[honey]

Superficial comment but Jordan’s pony tail is super cute on her.

 

[Karen-W]

Solid beam for Leanne! Keep it up, Gator Girl!

 

[Rukia]

I know Wong is a good gymnast but idk I just can't get into that beam routine.

 

[Theatregirl1122]

Clutch for Leanne on beam

 

[peibeck]

Jordan a great UB routine too.
Wong very solid on beam, much better than night one.

 

[ilovesalchows]

I just love Leanne Wong for the team. She isn’t flashy and she doesn’t have huge skills, but she is dependable across the board.

I have had a migraine all day but thankfully I'm finally feeling better just in time to watch day two of the women's comp tonight. Suni's bars was and I still cannot believe Simone saved that vault landing.

SO happy to see some strong performances right out of the gate tonight from everyone!

In addition to the gymnastics I’ve been watching the track and field trials. I have a question… Why do the USA athletes and parents all yell “let’s go” … where are they going?
Can someone be a bit more original and yell something different, it’s getting annoying.

 

[Spikefan]

These women are bringing it, can we take them all to Paris? 5 for the team, the 5 alternates (all traveling, not just 2) and the other 3 just giving us handstands around Paris.

Karen posted separate links to tonight and to overall.

For those keeping score at home, yes, I am in Iceland. Yes it is in the middle of the night. Yes, I should be asleep.

But! It’s once every four years!!!

Maybe it would make more sense if they yelled "Allez!" since they're all hoping to go to Paris?

She needs to go the ice skater route and ditch the sparkly bow for a tiara!

 

[canbelto]

I know this is sort of delicate but Jordan has lost so much weight ...

 

[Karen-W]

Eeek - big pause near the end there for Jade but she stayed up. Won't be a great bars score - but that's not going to keep her off the team.

I don't think they'll ever use Jade on bars though ...

 

[Theatregirl1122]

So sad to see Shi in the stands. She deserved it so much and was so close.

Oh yes!! That would change it up!

 

[AngieNikodinovLove (ANL)]

Can Sam not commentate on Jade anymore?

 

[Spikefan]

Yeah, she wouldn’t be used on bars even if she gave . If she’s on bars something has gone horribly wrong.

 

[Karen-W]

It would be one very weird team combination for Jade to be used on bars, even in prelims, I agree, lol.

Who was that cute kid in the men’s box? Was that Asher’s brother?

ANL claims dibs on everybody, even if we don’t know their names

added later, wait kid? No
