Judging from her latest IG post, it seems Hurd won’t be petitioning to Trials. I’m a bit sad because she’s the one gymnast I’ve been following in the last four years.
At the virtual Canadian Nationals, Ava Stewart scored 14.5 and Ellie Black scored 14.250 on UB on Day 2.A look at the top scorers this season on UB (not sure how much the National scores from the US, JPN, and CHN competitors will go down or not internationally)
USA
Sunisa Lee 15.3
Riley McCusker 15.1
Simone Biles 14.7
JPN
Hitomi Hatakeda 14.3
Mai Murakami 14.2
CHN
Fan Yilin 15.0
Li Shijia 14.7
Lu Yufei 14.6
(among others less likely to make the team scoring in same range)
RUS (at Europeans 2021)
Angelina Melnikova 14.6
Vladislava Urazova 14.5
Viktoria Listunova 14.3
(Nina Derwael at Worlds 2019 -15.2)
Others at Europeans 2021

(Becky Downie's highest UB score at the early season trials was 14.3- I forget what she scored at her own personal trial)
Get a vpn. I’ve been paying for one for months and haven’t really used it. This is the perfect excuse. Eurosport, or whoever is covering the Olympics in Britain, here I come.Serious question here how can you get a foreign feed during the Olympics? Do I need some sort of program to run by the geoblock? I want to watch the Olympics not the Simone livestream.
My sekret source says the team is known, but will not be announced publicly until June 17th.What's going on with Canada? Wasn't their last trial a few weeks ago? When are they announcing their team? Moors has to be on it!!!ARGH!

Stewart's best result on bars was at the second technical trial in April where she got 14.65 (D Score 6.0). She did do a more difficult routine at day two of nationals though (6.1).At the virtual Canadian Nationals, Ava Stewart scored 14.5 and Ellie Black scored 14.250 on UB on Day 2.
I saw a post on Reddit (but with no source) that her petition was denied. I am sad too, she looked back on track at AmCup last year. If not for the pandemic, I thought she'd make the team last year. I wanted to see a bit more artistry on our team. Well, on to the Gators for her!Judging from her latest IG post, it seems Hurd won’t be petitioning to Trials.

This may be a 3 or 4 screen Os for me. One tablet VPN’d to Europe, one on Peacock, and the TVs toggling between NBC, MSNBC, CNBC, NBCSports and the Oly Channel. I have my fingers crossed that there will be some sort of comprehensive guide that helps me sort through it all.You can download the Opera browser and set your location to somewhere outside the U.S.
I'm hoping the NBC website will offer a feed for each apparatus like they did last time, so I can switch back and forth depending on who is up and where the action is.
So weird to see ROM without any teams again. Also no team for BRA, but I am so glad Andrade made it.Named/earned spots individuals on countries with no teams (there are others but these are some of the most notable)
Women
ROM Larisa Iordache, Maria Holbura
Men
ROM Marian Dragulescu
Rodionenko confirmed to R-Sport that for men, the team is more or less decided and for women, the three spots are decided and the last spot is between Elena Gerasimova and Lilia Akhaimova:
“We decided on the teams for the Olympic Games. For guys, we count on Dalaloyan whose recovery is going well and who has another month to recover. And there’s no equivalent replacement for him. That’s why the team is, first of all, Nagorny, Belyavskiy, Dalaloyan, and Kartsev. For girls, it’s Melnikova, Listunova, Urazova and, likely, Gerasimova. The choice is between Gerasimova and Akhaimova but Gerasimova is a bit more reliable.”
I’d assume that she will do it at some point. She has to do it at the Olympics or Worlds for it to be named after her. Tim and Nastia said that she’ll do it at Trials.Anyone know if Simone is going to the Yurchenko double pike at the Olympics? It'd be awesome if she did it at event finals.
She has said I think she'll do it in TF as it's the time they get warm-up. EFs are not an option because there is no warm-up.Anyone know if Simone is going to the Yurchenko double pike at the Olympics? It'd be awesome if she did it at event finals.
