ROTATION 3
12:52 pm. Chen Ziyan CHN BB: Side aerial to a floaty loso. Big switch ring, a lil slow to the Korbut. Front aerial to split ring jump to bhs. Hit another jump series that I did not see super well so I won’t pretend to know what it was. Switch leap to split jump half to straddle 3/4, maybe was slightly short in the split jump half? Dismounts with a double pike, step forward. Mostly great!

12:48 pm. Zhong Qi CHN BB: Good back handspring mount. Bhs loso is pretty solid. Switch ring slow to the split ring jump but gets that well into a back handspring. Switch leap to switch half to Korbut. Clean side somi. Back loop is nice as well! Front aerial to split jump to straddle jump. Nice high double full dismount. 14.100!

Switch leap to switch half. Triple wolf turn, lovely. Front aerial, bent front leg, but connects well to the jump series. Double pike with a lunge back. 13.566

ROTATION 1
12:17 pm. Alice Johnson AUS BB: Triple wolf turn, clean. Bhs loso was slightly short but not bad. Big switch leap to split jump and a solid standing back tuck. Side aerial to split jump (low back leg) to bhs, big break at the hips, may have touched the beam? Tour jeté with a big wobble that went on for hours but she saved from a fall!

12:13 pm. Tia Elmidany EGY FX: I’ve been following her scores over the past couple of years and have been so intrigued. This is my first time actually getting to watch her so I’m very excited!

12:05 pm. Louane Plisson FRA UB: Toe half to Endo half to Maloney, nice and clean, to Tkachev. Clean Pak as well, toe full was a bit messy and rushed, gets it to the van Leeuwen, blind change with minor ankle separation, to front giant to double front half. Good! 13.600
Togo Nanami JPN VT: Yurchenko double full. 13.700
12:02 pm. Aniela Tudor ROU FX: Starts with a double wolf turn. First pass is then a tucked full-in, lots of form in the air and a really short landing but gets it to her feet. Double tuck also with some minor form and chest down but better overall! Switch half through to tour jeté half. Front full with some bent knees. 12.166
12:01 pm. Looks like touch warmups are underway!
11:59 am. I unfortunately have been insanely busy, so had to miss ALL of qualifications this weekend AND the MAG team final this morning, but I have been following along and am excited to see the WAG competition today!
I’m watching on Peacock, but there are also streams on Eurovision and on the FIG microsite, and I’m following live scores on the Dakar 2026 website.
