I just checked this out, and 100% agree — Valentina Georgieva should have gotten the bonus, too, and the gold medal. The Women's Technical Committee has NEVER understood Kasamatsu vaults, and it's absolutely pathetic — it's not rocket science.

AND they compared scores on DIFFERENT apparatus ... every stage. Let's pit a 100 m butterfly vs. a 100m breaststroke and give the winner a gold medal!!

Hmmm... I feel like some of us write stuff like that here in this forum all the time. Maybe we should all be getting Masters' degrees for this?

I HATE this competition format. I am all for a mixed team event, but this is NOT it. When a country win's a team competition, you can say "This group did the best gymnastics today." You can't say that here. I don't even know what the outcome of this event means. That these specific two...

Right? I mean, where's her grips? :-)

thank you both so much!

Whatever happened to Wei Xiaoyuan? She won bars at Worlds two years in a row, and I feel like she disappeared after 2023. She's only 20, and she was so good, that you'd think she would still be a contender, but...

Has she shared that she actually has a problem with alcoholism? If so, then I think you all have points. But just because she got this DUI doesn't necessarily mean....

Those of you watching — are you enjoying the competition format? Or is it as bizarre as people predicted? Could it grow on you?

Wow. It's just WAG Judge Hatred™, it seems? Absolutely no clue. I had it at 8.8 as well, and that was while TRYING to get down to 8.3 or 8.4

Then you had idiot teachers. Catholics have no problem with evolution.

Yikes! Both to the DUI and to watching videos while driving!

They do, and I would love that... but they also have Zou Jingyuan, who is just as good as him and, lately, even Liu Yang — Zou Jingyuan beat him in qualifications at the Olympics and lose the gold in the final by less than 0.1. You Hao probably should develop a second specialty. And it's not...

I don't remember there every being a Chinese MAG to compete so long. Not even close, in fact. Yet there's also Liu Yang. He's 31. And Xiao Ruoteng is 29. Gosh, I feel like it was just a few years ago when he won the AA at Worlds and Uchimura's reign ended. Sheesh.

The new code was written for You Hao. And even though he just turned 33, he's sticking around to milk it! As of January, guys now only need 8 skills instead of 10. So most guys dropped two C or D skills. He took out his Peach HS and Healy (Used to both be Ds, but Healy was dropped to C, which...
