5:22 pm. Rodriguez ESP FX: Well she’s back for floor and I’m so glad because I would have died without this toe point. Memmel turn, insanely lovely. High stuck double pike. Rudi, solid landing. Some ankle twisting. Her switch ring made me want to cry it’s so good. Double full. Beautiful.
Taman EGY BB: Had a fall early on. Good flight series. Switch half, wobble. Hit the dismount.
5:18 pm. Perez ESP FX: Whip whip through to full-in, hop back, nice. Good double tuck. Excellent routine.
Stamenkovic SRB UB: Swing is pretty rough before her dismount, had to pause on the high bar. Double tuck.

What a shame for Russia. They will probably leave WITHOUT A SINGLE INDIVIDUAL MEDAL, whereas SB will leave with 6 GOLD MEDALS. THIS IS WRONG. BAN THE SPORT.

Uh. Melnikova is still 3rd on floor and in solid contention for a medal in the AA. Aliya could also medal on UB if she surprises us with upgrades at EF and keeps her rock solid execution. Even just another .2 in difficulty would push her Quals score into bronze contention.
Also, there’s no guarantee of Simone leaving with 6 golds. LMAO. She’s without a doubt a contender for UB gold now that we’ve seen her reception internationally, but Nina is still the favorite and if she hits and can be much cleaner than she was in Quals, losing the gold is nearly unthinkable unless someone else has the routine of their life.
You’re being very dramatic for such an early stage in the game. Russia has very solid chances at individual medals, just not gold.

I don;t care what your opinion of Biles is but maybe not spamming it everywhere.

Boohoo. Why not sit back and enjoy being witness to one of the greatest athletes in history? And enjoy the match up that is going on for 2nd and 3rds. Those are gonna be close. Oh…and Nina….another historic moment for Belgium. If she hits, i really dontthink anyone can beat her on bars this year. It’ll be close…plus, your Russian 👑 is in the final and she can never be counted out. Shes amazing. Lowest D, but high af E, bc Aliya. Quit complaining. This is a great WC!

I have been highkey obsessed with Cintia’s floor since I saw her live in Glasgow. So cross she doesn’t have enough difficulty to make the final. She’s one of the most artistic gymnasts competing.
