Considering how many times she mentions god in her announcement…I would guess Lyden is going to Oklahoma.

Adding to the cultural thoughts about pen and cutlery holding…my first thought when seeing Jade hold her pen that way was, “no way she grew up going to Catholic Schools”😂

Assuming Algeria is going to get the Africa spot for the foreseeable future, what if we got to the point where South Africa or Egypt was fielding a stronger team than Finland/Czech Republic/Austria etc (whoever is the last European qualifier)…what would be the path to changing the qualifications...

Are the continental championships the only way countries can advance a team to worlds? Given roughly equivalent competitiveness, would be preferable to see the 2nd best country from one continent over the 13th best country from another at a World Championship.

Ciena Alipio announces her retirement from gymnastics. I assume to shut down any chances of returning to elite? Or was there a chance she could take a 5th year?

I can’t tell you how much I would love to see Camelia try to intimidate Tabitha Yim😂

Ana Barbosu won the AA with a 39.4 in a dual meet between Stanford and Denver. Solid start for her, good to see her thriving!

4 finals and 1st reserve for the 5th for Moreau. Has she missed a single routine in competition this year?

The feminist in me loves a storyline where there is a “Mr. Voinea” inserting himself in a situation to create more drama. #equality

A 0.1 separation for gold between hit sets from melnikova and Neymour would have been so much more satisfying..

Ugh just a very unsatisfying result. I wish Melnikova would have hit. She looks great and I would have been able to cheer for her winning if so, I think she is the best AA athlete at this competition. Just not win with a fall better…

All 0.3 deductions for melnikova are automatically reduced to 0.1😂

Can they make a flag out of the screenshot of that first pass landing and fly that for the medal ceremony?
