Long time since I’ve posted- just lurk most of the time. A WWGYM head.
Suni was never “supposed” to win AA at the Olympics. Or at least not the way she did.
She ended up the face of the Olympic Womens gym and I don’t think she was prepared for all the scrutiny that came with it- as well as all...
So Lauries Wikipedia is updated to say she’s dating Charlotte. Is it officially confirmed? I just discovered TikTok and apparently she shared a video with Charlotte but they deleted it because it was causing them anxiety as it blew up. That seems to be the source on Wikipedia. As a proud gay...
Okay- so Twitter is going a bit crazy. It’s being reported (Insider Mag) that Simone was unable to take her ADHD medicine. Is this going to be debunked. Apparently all stimulant medications are banned in Japan. I have seen the document where it states the exemption protocols. But this is a...
Cecile has liked a good few things on Twitter but yes, no public statements. I’m surprised is all. Like this really is one of the biggest upsets ever. No one predicted this happening. I’d have thought Laurent as head coach and Simone’s coach would have said something.
Simone just posted a pic...
I’m shocked that Laurent has not come out to speak about what’s going on. I know Simone has been sharing bits and pieces but with an athlete who is still technically supposed to be competing- the reserves need an answer. I don’t know, the whole thing is odd.
I would hope that if she decided to compete, her teammates would support her. I can see it turning bad if she vaults- won’t get into it, but if she does beam and floor, I think people would support her ending it on her terms. And if they didn’t support the athlete who won on the day, despite the...
I’ve been trying to find words all day- that properly reflect how proud I am of those women for stepping up, and also of Simone for knowing when things are dangerous. That woman is doing tricks that are undervalued to discourage others from doing them. Like literally- a broken neck could happen...
Pretty sure deadline is passed- 5th of July(date could be a bit off) I think. So they’re left with Emma and DiCello. So they can only use whoever is in Tokyo now.
I’m just wondering who’s they’d sub in if they needed another sub- would Jade or MyK get the spot on team. I mean I’d say Skinner...
From my reading of the policy- there’s is room for “interpretation” of being allowed to compete following a +test. Personally I blame Khorkina and her voodoo doll FWIW.
Hypothetical scenario: Simone received a positive test after start of comp. In order to minimise her risk of spreading it to...
Yes, they (the coach) says they skipped the person in 4th and go straight to 7th. Name not said- impossible to be anyone else.
Meh, I’m just being pedantic. I’ve really softened towards MyKayla for the most part and considering she did NCAA/hasn’t stopped- it’s fantastic that she’s finally...
I think it’s amazing to see hard work and dedication paying off for someone and yes, she does seem more mature now. Thank god really- she’s a married woman, pretty much finished university with a whole tonne of life experience behind her.
However, I take issue with the comments her and coach...
