I KNOW. I saw her name and was like “YES SHE DID IT!” and then realized she was after the other two Aussies. 😦

I thought Liv Viv would have made it for UB, but so happy for GRB!
Really happy to see some gymnasts from some less obvious countries in the finals too.

Can I be suuuuuuper fussy, and mention: I notice a lot of American Gym Fans are calling this comp “The Commonwealths” but I guarantee you in all my years of watching, it’s only ever been called “The Commonwealth Games” or CWG. I’ve never heard anyone in Australia/UK ever refer to it as the Commonwealths. I’m probably the only person in the world who sees that and goes ugh, but I have a pet peeve of adding “s” to names of things that aren’t really meant to be there… (yes I’m a weirdo ha!).

Hahaha – Commonwealths is just the abbreviation I use for this site because I don’t like abbreviations like CWG in article headers and Commonwealth Games is too long, so I basically just take out GAME from “Commonwealth Games” and shorten it. Maybe others are doing it because that’s what I’m calling it, but honestly, it’s just due to a spacing issue!

Haha yes that’s fair enough, it is a bit of a cumbersome title! I’ve seen some other bloggers call it that and I’m just like “no no no!” lol.
