I'm not sure about that. Had she not choked during the AA on bars, and obtained the same score on it as in qualification (15.100 instead of 14.200), she would now be AA world champion. It was her significantly underperforming on bars that cost her the title

If Michelle were still competing today, she could still probably win US Nationals!

RIP He probably would have become an olympic champion had it not been for the second world war. He finally got to compete at an olympics in 1948, finishing second to Dick Button. He had beaten Dick the year before to win his only world title. Its a shame he was unable to compete when he would...
